Abstract 4900
Background
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is heterogenous morphologically, clinically and genetically. Although half of patients could be cured by frontline R-CHOP, approximately 10%-15% are refractory or relapse within the 1st year. Here, we investigated the molecular landscapes of patients with diverse responses to R-CHOP.
Methods
Targeted sequencing was performed on baseline samples of 105 DLBCL patients. After a median follow-up of 67 months, 63 (60.0%) patients had refractory or relapsed disease. All patients received R-CHOP(-like) regimen as the first-line treatment. After excluding double-hit and primary central system lymphoma, 81 patients with measurable disease before initial treatment and followed over 1 year were included for survival analysis. Patients who received less than a partial remission in the first-line setting or those relapsed within the first 12 months since the initiation of the treatment were defined as having primary refractory.
Results
Collectively, we identified 1162 mutations spanning 103 genes from this cohort. The most commonly seen mutations included PIM1(33%), MYD88 (29%), BCL2 (29%), TP53 (29%), CD79B (25%) and KMT2D (24%). Patients with TP53 mutations were more likely to have primary refractory disease (41.7% vs 7.4%, p = 0.002). For those with TP53 disruptive mutations, primary refractory is also more common (22.9% vs. 0%, p = 0.006). Interestingly, BCL-2 somatic hypermutation (SHM) was only seen in patients without primary refractory disease (p = 0.014). The International prognostic index (IPI) score and other clinical characteristics were comparable between the 2 groups. Furthermore, TP53 mutations were correlated with shorter PFS (p = 0.001) and OS (p = 0.049). Next, we investigated mutation landscape in patients with WT TP53 (n = 58) and found that patients harboring MYD88 L265P had significantly inferior PFS than those with WT or non-265P (p = 0.046).
Conclusions
We revealed that patients with TP53 mutation are more likely to have primary refractory to standard R-CHOP. This study also showed the prognostic potential of MYD88 L265P in those with WT TP53 and indicated that distinct subgroups could be identified by TP53 and MYD88 L265P mutations.
