Stasik K, Filip R. The Complex Relationship between Mechanisms Underlying Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Its Treatment, and the Risk of Lymphomas: A Comprehensive Review. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:4241. [PMID: 38673824 PMCID: PMC11049907 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25084241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 04/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease may be at higher risk of developing lymphomas and other cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, there may be a link between the use of thiopurines or anti-tumor necrosis factor drugs (anti-TNF) and these pathologies. The treatment of patients with Crohn's disease who have previously been diagnosed with lymphoma is a challenge for gastroenterologists. In this report, we examine important clinical issues related to the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease with active lymphoma, as well as of patients with hematological cancer history. In this discussion, we take into account most of the available treatments for inflammatory bowel disease, as well as the impact of chronic inflammation and viral infections. In addition, we try to find common ground for the development of lymphoproliferative disorders and autoimmune diseases. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease may be at higher risk of developing lymphomas and other cancers of the gastrointestinal tract. Chronic inflammatory processes and viral infections play an important role in carcinogenesis. In addition, there may be a link between the use of thiopurines or anti-TNF drugs and these pathologies. A significant risk of the development of lymphoma in people undergoing each therapy should be considered, and it should be estimated how much greater this risk will be in patients with a history of lymphoproliferative disorders. The following review is an attempt to answer which therapy would be the most appropriate for patients with Crohn's disease and a history of lymphoma treatment. A lack of clear guidelines creates great challenges for doctors.

[PMID: 37864133 PMCID: PMC10589955 DOI: 10.1186/s12879-023-08671-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors for infection complications in patients with gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (GI-DLBCL) and nodal DLBCL (N-DLBCL) during treatment, respectively. METHODS Total 51 GI-DLBCL patients and 80 N-DLBCL patients were included after retrieving clinical data from a single medical center in the past ten years. Logistic regression analysis was utilized to analyze patients' data, including baseline demographics, treatments and laboratory values, to determine independent risk factors of infection in these patients. RESULTS Total 28 of 51 patients (54.9%) in the GI-DLBCL group and 52 of 80 patients (65%) in the N-DLBCL group were observed infection events during treatment. A multivariate logistic regression model revealed that Ann-arbor stage IV (P = 0.034; odds ratio [OR]: 10.635; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.152-142.712), extra-nodal lesions ≥ 2 (P = 0.041; OR: 23.116; 95%CI: 1.144-466.949) and high serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) at the time of diagnosis (LDH > 252U/L; P = 0.033; OR: 6.058; 95%CI: 1.159-31.659) were independent risk factors for the development of infection in patients with GI-DLBCL after systemic treatment. In the N-DLBCL group, high serum C-reactive protein (CRP) (P = 0.027; OR: 1.104; 95%CI: 1.011-1.204) and a low platelet count (P = 0.041; OR: 0.991; 95%CI: 0.982-1.000) at routine blood tests just before infection occurred were identified as significant risk factors related to infection events during treatment. CONCLUSIONS Discordant independent risk factors induced infection may be present during the treatment in patients with GI-DLBCL and N-DLBCL. Close monitoring these risk factors is likely an effective strategy to prevent microbial infections in these patients.

Abstract
The molecular landscapes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remained to be comprehensively investigated with an urgent need to identify novel prognostic biomarkers guiding prognostic stratification and disease monitoring. Baseline tumor samples of 148 DLBCL patients were analyzed using targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) for mutational profiling, whose clinical reports were retrospectively reviewed. In this cohort, the subgroup of old DLBCL patients (age at diagnosis > 60, N = 80) exhibited significantly higher Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scores and International Prognostic Index than their young counterparts (age at diagnosis ≤ 60, N = 68). As revealed by the NGS results, PIM1 (43.9%), KMT2D (31.8%), MYD88 (29.7%), and CD79B (27.0%) were identified as the most frequently mutated genes. Aberrations of genes of the immune escape pathway were significantly enriched in the young subgroup, while the altered epigenetic regulators were more abundant in the old patients. FAT4 mutation was identified as a positive prognostic biomarker, associated with longer progression-free survival and overall survival in the entire cohort and the old subgroup, using the Cox regression analyses. However, the prognostic function of FAT4 was not reproduced in the young subgroup. We comprehensively analyzed the pathological and molecular characteristics of old and young DLBCL patients and demonstrated the prognostic value of FAT4 mutation, which requires further validation with sizable cohorts in future research.

[PMID: 37706649 PMCID: PMC10587923 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Comprehensive molecular subtyping of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) through genetic profiling has broadened our understanding of DLBCL biology. In this study, we investigated whether DLBCL, not otherwise specified (NOS) shows differences in mutational patterns depending on the primary organ. PATIENTS AND METHODS Panel-based next-generation sequencing was performed on 345 DLBCL from various primary organs, and patterns of mutations according to primary organs were analyzed. RESULTS DLBCL showed a characteristic mutational signature in several primary organs. Among them, the mutational pattern of DLBCL in the breast and ileocecal area was particularly different from that of other DLBCL NOS. In breast DLBCL, MYD88L265P (57.1%), CD79B mutation (42.9%), and CDKN2A/B loss (71.4%) were found at high frequencies, which were similar to the mutation patterns of DLBCL of immune-privileged sites compared with DLBCL NOS. DLBCL in the ileocecal area showed a characteristic mutation pattern with the most frequent TP53 mutation (52.6%) and 18q21 gain (42.1%). This was also different from the mutational pattern observed in the stomach or other intestines. In discriminant analysis, DLBCL of the breast and ileocecal area tended to form separate genetic constellations from other DLBCL NOS. CONCLUSION DLBCL NOS has a characteristic mutational profile that depends on the primary organ. In particular, the mutational signature of DLBCL in the breast and ileocecal area was heterogeneous compared with that of other DLBCL NOS. Further research is needed to determine whether primary DLBCL in the breast and ileocecal area can be classified as an independent subtype.

Abstract
We aimed to detect the clinicopathological features and immune microenvironment of double-hit/triple-hit lymphoma in the gastrointestinal tract (GI-DHL/THL) and identify the best diagnostic strategies. A total of 114 cases, including 15 GI-DHL/THL, 42 non-GI-DHL/THL and 57 control diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cases, were comparatively analyzed for their clinicopathological characteristics, the expression of the immune-regulatory checkpoint PD-L1 and immune microenvironment. We applied univariate and multivariate analyses to determine predictors of DHL/THL. GI-DHL/THL patients showed a higher prevalence of previous infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) than those with GI-DLBCL. Morphologically, 87% of cases exhibited features of DLBCL. Regarding immunohistochemistry results, the MYC protein expression and the Ki-67 proliferation index were significantly higher in the GI-DHL/THL group than in the GI-DLBCL group. The main source of PD-L1 expression in DHL was tumor-associated macrophages, whereas some tumor cells were positive for PD-L1 in GI-DLBCL cases, as determined through multiplex immunofluorescence staining. The multivariable logistic analysis suggested that 5 variables, namely, age, Mum1, CD10, MYC, and HBV infection status, reflect the risk of DHL/THL. The GI-DHL/THL group show different clinicopathological features and immune microenvironments from DLBCL, which might suggest that different signaling pathways are involved. More work is needed to elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of GI-DHL/THL.

A Novel Prognostic Model for Patients with Primary Gastric Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2022; 2022:9636790. [PMID: 36339648 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9636790] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Objectives. Primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL) is a common phenotype of extranodal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). This research aims to identify a model for predicting overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in PG-DLBCL. Methods. A total of 1716 patients diagnosed with PG-DLBCL between 1975 and 2017 were obtained from the SEER database and further randomly divided into the training and validating cohorts at a ratio of 7 : 3. Univariate and multivariate cox analyses were conducted to determine significant variables for the construction of nomogram. The performance of the model was then assessed by the concordance index (C-index), the calibration plot, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). Results. Multivariate analysis revealed that age, race, insurance status, Ann Arbor stage, marital status, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy all showed a significant association with OS and CSS. These characteristics were applied to build a nomogram. In the training cohort, the discrimination of nomogram for OS and CSS prediction was excellent (C-index = 0.764, 95% CI, 0.744–0.784 and C-index = 0.756, 95% CI, 0.732–0.780). The AUC of the nomogram for predicting 3- and 5-year OS was 0.779 and 0.784 and CSS was 0.765 and 0.772. Similar results were also observed in the internal validation set. Conclusions. We have successfully established a novel nomogram for predicting OS and CSS in PG-DLBCL patients with good accuracy, which can help physicians to quickly and accurately complete the evaluation of survival probability, risk stratification, and therapeutic strategy at diagnosis.

Whole-exome sequencing analysis identifies distinct mutational profile and novel prognostic biomarkers in primary gastrointestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Exp Hematol Oncol 2022; 11:71. [PMID: 36243813 PMCID: PMC9569083 DOI: 10.1186/s40164-022-00325-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and about 10% of DLBCL cases primarily occur in the gastrointestinal tract. Previous reports have revealed that primary gastrointestinal-DLBCL (pGI-DLBCL) harbors different genetic mutations from other nodal or extranodal DLBCL. However, the exonic mutation profile of pGI-DLBCL has not been fully addressed. Methods We performed whole-exome sequencing of matched tumor tissues and blood samples from 53 pGI-DLBCL patients. The exonic mutation profiles were screened, and the correlations between genetic mutations and clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed. Results A total of 6,588 protein-altering events were found and the five most frequent mutated genes in our pGI-DLBCL cohort were IGLL5 (47%), TP53 (42%), BTG2 (28%), P2RY8 (26%) and PCLO (23%). Compared to the common DLBCL, significantly less or absence of MYD88 (0%), EZH2 (0%), BCL2 (2%) or CD79B (8%) mutations were identified in pGI-DLBCL. The recurrent potential driver genes were mainly enriched in pathways related to signal transduction, infectious disease and immune regulation. In addition, HBV infection had an impact on the mutational signature in pGI-DLBCL, as positive HBsAg was significantly associated with the TP53 and LRP1B mutations, two established tumor suppressor genes in many human cancers. Moreover, IGLL5 and LRP1B mutations were significantly correlated with patient overall survival and could serve as two novel prognostic biomarkers in pGI-DLBCL. Conclusions Our study provides a comprehensive view of the exonic mutation profile of the largest pGI-DLBCL cohort to date. The results could facilitate the clinical development of novel therapeutic and prognostic biomarkers for pGI-DLBCL.

Abstract
Simple Summary Tumors of colon and rectum other than adenocarcinomas represent a neglected issue from clinical and laboratory points of view because of their rarity. In this review, we summarize and describe the rare histologic entities occurring in colon and rectum. Clinical and pathologic characteristics, prognostic behavior, treatments, and altered genes are reported to provide readers with a paramount and comparative perspective. In relation to this, we propose that improvements in registries and multidisciplinary research are warranted to ameliorate their management. Abstract The most frequent form of colorectal cancer is represented by adenocarcinoma being about 98% of tumor histological types. However, other rare histotypes can be found in colon and rectum (adenosquamous, goblet cell adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, medullary carcinoma, melanoma, mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, plasmacytoma, signet ring, squamous tumors). Altogether, these forms account for less than 2% of colorectal tumors. There are no specific diagnostic or therapeutic recommended approaches and most of the information available from literature derives from small and retrospective clinical series. In the present study, we provide a paramount and updated view on clinical and biologic characteristics of rare colorectal tumors.
