Abstract
Background Marginal zone lymphomas (MZL), comprised of three unique but related subtypes, lack a unifying prognostic score applicable to all the patients in need for systemic chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy. Methods Patients from the prospective NF10 study (NCT02904577) with newly diagnosed MZL and receiving frontline systemic therapy at diagnosis or after observation were used to train a prognostic model. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) from start of treatment. The model was externally validated in a pooled analysis of two independent cohorts from the University of Iowa and Mayo Clinic Molecular Epidemiology Resource and the University of Miami. Findings We identified 501 eligible patients. After multivariable modeling, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) above upper normal limit, hemoglobin <12 g/dL, absolute lymphocyte count <1 × 109/L, platelets <100 × 109/L, and MZL subtype (nodal or disseminated) were independently associated with inferior PFS. The proposed MZL International Prognostic index (MZL-IPI) combined these 5 factors, and we defined low (LRG, 0 factors, 27%), intermediate (IRG, 1-2 factors, 57%) and high (HRG, 3+ factors, 16%) risk groups with 5-y PFS of 85%, 66%, and 37%, respectively (c-Harrell = 0.64). Compared to the LRG, the IRG (Hazard Ratio [HR] = 2.30, 95% CI 1.39-3.80) and HRG (HR = 5.41, 95% CI 3.12-9.38) had inferior PFS. Applying the MZL-IPI to the pooled US cohort (N = 353), 94 (27%), 192 (54%), and 67 (19%) patients were classified as LRG, IRG, and HRG, respectively, and the model was validated for PFS (log-rank test p = 0.0018; c-Harrell = 0.578, 95% CI 0.54-0.62). The MZL-IPI was also prognostic for OS in both the training and the external validation sets. Interpretation MZL-IPI is a new prognostic score for use in all patients with MZL considered for systemic treatment. Funding The MER was supported by P50 CA97274 and U01 CA195568.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) has a very indolent course, and the validation of surrogate markers could accelerate novel therapies. Although prognostic markers do exist, no surrogate markers have been validated in EMZL. We hypothesized that time to complete response within 24 months (TTCR24) and complete response (CR) at 24 months (CR24) could be valid surrogate markers of progression-free survival (PFS). The International Extranodal Lymphoma Study Group 19 phase 3 trial showed the advantage of double therapy (rituximab + chlorambucil) over single therapy (rituximab or chlorambucil) on PFS. We used 2 recently published single-trial approaches to assess whether TTCR24 and CR24 were good surrogate markers of 8-year PFS (8y-PFS). Among the 401 patients, 264 (66%) reached a CR in the first 24 months, of which 222 (84%) remained in CR at month 24. The cumulative incidence of CR over time was significantly higher in patients under double therapy (hazard ratio, 1.75; P < .001). The double therapy arm was associated with a higher CR24 rate, a shorter TTCR24, and a longer 8y-PFS. The estimated proportion of treatment effect on 8y-PFS explained by TTCR24 was 95% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.27-1.87). CR24 was also a strong surrogate marker because it mediated 90% (95% CI, 0.51-2.22) of the treatment effect on PFS and its natural indirect effect was significant throughout the follow-up. We found that TTCR24 predicted 95% and that CR24 mediated 90% of the treatment effect on long-term PFS. Therefore, TTCR24 and CR24 could be used in clinical trials as informative and valid early indicators of treatment effect on PFS. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00210353.

Abstract
Non-follicular low-grade B-cell lymphomas (LGBCL) are biologically diverse entities that share clinical and histologic features that make definitive pathologic categorization challenging. While most patients with LGBCL have an indolent course, some experience aggressive disease, highlighting additional heterogeneity across these subtypes. To investigate the potential for shared biology across subtypes, we performed RNA sequencing and applied machine learning approaches that identified five clusters of patients that grouped independently of subtype. One cluster was characterized by inferior outcome, upregulation of cell cycle genes, and increased tumor immune cell content. Integration of whole exome sequencing identified novel LGBCL mutations and enrichment of TNFAIP3 and BCL2 alterations in the poor survival cluster. Building on this, we further refined a transcriptomic signature associated with early clinical failure in two independent cohorts. Taken together, this study identifies unique clusters of LGBCL defined by novel gene expression signatures and immune profiles associated with outcome across diagnostic subtypes.

Abstract
DISEASE OVERVIEW Marginal zone lymphomas (MZL) are collectively the second most common type of indolent lymphoma. DIAGNOSIS Three subtypes of MZL are recognized: splenic, extranodal, and nodal. The diagnosis is secured following biopsy of an involved nodal or extranodal site demonstrating a clonal B-cell infiltrate with CD5 and CD10 negative immunophenotype most common. Some cases will features IgM paraprotein, but MYD88 L256P mutations are less frequent than in Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. Prognostication Several prognostic models have been developed, including the MALT-IPI and the MZL-IPI. The latter is broadly applicable across MZL subtypes and incorporates elevated serum LDH, anemia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia and nodal or disseminated subtypes as independent predictors of outcome. TREATMENT We discuss suggested approach to therapy for both early and advanced-stage disease, with reference to chemo-immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and emerging treatments in relapsed/refractory disease such as BTK inhibitors.

Abstract
Nodal marginal zone lymphoma (NMZL) is a rare non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma that has historically been difficult to define, though is now formally recognized by the World Health Organization Classification. To better characterize the clinical outcomes of patients with NMZL, we reviewed a sequential cohort of 187 patients with NMZL to describe baseline characteristics, survival outcomes, and time-to-event data. Initial management strategies were classified into five categories: observation, radiation, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody therapy, chemoimmunotherapy, or other. Baseline Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index scores were calculated to evaluate prognosis. A total of 187 patients were analyzed. The five-year overall survival was 91% (95% confidence interval [CI], 87-95), with a median follow-up time of 71 months (range, 8-253) among survivors. A total of 139 patients received active treatment at any point, with a median follow-up time of 56 months (range, 13-253) among survivors who were never treated. The probability of remaining untreated at five years was 25% (95% CI, 19-33). For those initially observed, the median time to active treatment was 72 months (95% CI, 49-not reached). For those who received at least one active treatment, the cumulative incidence of receiving a second active treatment at 60 months was 37%. Transformation to large B-cell lymphoma was rare, with a cumulative incidence of 15% at 10 years. In summary, our series is a large cohort of uniformly diagnosed NMZL with detailed analyses of survival and time to event analyses. We showed that NMZL commonly presents as an indolent lymphoma for which initial observation is often a reasonable strategy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue is an indolent lymphoma originating from marginal zone B-cells and associated with chronic inflammation. EMZL demonstrates distinct genomic alterations according to the primary extranodal site of disease but commonly affects signaling pathways including NF-ĸB, B-cell receptor, and NOTCH. Treatment with radiation therapy is commonly implemented in localized diseases, and multiple agents are available for patients with advanced-stage diseases in need of therapy. Bendamustine with rituximab is a frontline platform associated with high efficacy. AREAS COVERED Clinical features, diagnosis, genomics, models enabling risk stratification, treatment options, and future directions. EXPERT OPINION The lack of consistent genotyping profile in EMZL precludes the development of tissue and circulatory biomarkers for the diagnosis, risk stratification, and monitoring of minimal residual disease. Furthermore, the biological heterogeneity observed in extranodal sites associated with overall limited genomic data prevents the testing of druggable pathways aiming for a personalized treatment approach. Future clinical trials should focus on EMZL considering the unique clinical characteristics in the eligibility criteria and response assessment to better inform efficacy of novel agents and delineate sequences of therapies.

Abstract
PURPOSE We prospectively treated patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-associated indolent lymphomas with genotype-appropriate direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) with the aim to evaluate virologic and hematologic outcomes. No prospective studies in this setting have been published so far. METHODS FIL_BArT is a prospective, multicenter, phase II trial that evaluated genotype-appropriate DAAs in untreated HCV-positive patients with indolent lymphomas without criteria for immediate conventional antilymphoma treatment. The primary objective was sustained virologic response, whereas the main secondary objectives were overall response rate of lymphoma and progression-free survival. RESULTS Forty patients were enrolled, including 27 with marginal zone lymphoma. Median age was 68 years. Extranodal sites were involved in 14 cases (35%). Main genotypes were 1 in 16 patients and 2 in 21 patients. All patients received genotype-guided DAAs: 17 ledipasvir/sofosbuvir, eight sofosbuvir plus ribavirin, and 15 sofosbuvir/velpatasvir. All patients achieved sustained virologic response (100%). DAAs were well tolerated, with only two grade 3-4 adverse events. Overall response rate of lymphoma was 45%, including eight patients (20%) achieving complete response and 10 (25%) partial response, whereas 16 exhibited stable disease and six progressed. With a median follow-up of 37 months, two patients died (3-year overall survival 93%; 95% CI, 74 to 98) and three additional patients progressed, with a 3-year progression-free survival of 76% (95% CI, 57 to 87). CONCLUSION HCV eradication by DAAs was achieved in 100% of HCV-positive patients with indolent lymphomas not requiring immediate conventional treatment and resulted in non-negligible rate of lymphoma responses. Treatment with DAAs should be considered as the first-line therapy in this setting.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) represent about 7% of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas and include 3 different subtypes-namely, extranodal (EMZL), nodal, and splenic (SMZL). The initial assessment requires specific diagnostic and staging procedures depending on organ-related peculiarities. In particular, although positron emission tomography/computed tomography was not initially recommended, recent data have reassessed its role in the routine staging of MZL, especially when only localized treatment is planned or there is a suspicion of histologic transformation. Recent findings have improved the risk stratification of MZL patients, highlighting the association of early progression after frontline therapy with worse overall survival. A significant fraction of MZL cases may be related to specific bacterial (ie, Helicobacter pylori in gastric EMZL) or viral infections (hepatis C virus), and in the earlier phases of disease, a variable percentage of patients may respond to anti-infective therapy. Involved-site radiotherapy has a central role in the management of localized EMZL not amenable to or not responding to anti-infective therapy. Although rituximab-based treatments (bendamustine- rituximab in advanced EMZL or rituximab monotherapy in SMZL) have demonstrated favorable results, the current therapeutic scenario is predicted to rapidly change as emerging novel agents, especially Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitors, have demonstrated promising efficacy and safety profiles, leading to their approval in the relapsed setting. Moreover, a large variety of novel agents (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors, chimeric antigen receptor T-cells, bispecific antibodies) are being tested in MZL patients with encouraging preliminary results.

Abstract
Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) is a heterogeneous disease with a subset of patients exhibiting a more aggressive course. We previously reported that EMZL with multiple mucosal sites (MMS) at diagnosis is characterized by shorter survival. To better recognize patients with different patterns of progression-free survival (PFS) we developed and validated a new prognostic index primarily based on patient's disease characteristics. We derived the "Revised mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue International Prognostic Index" (Revised MALT-IPI) in a large data set (n = 397) by identifying candidate variables that showed highest prognostic association with PFS. The revised MALT-IPI was validated in two independent cohorts, from the University of Iowa/Mayo Clinic (n = 297) and from IELSG-19 study (n = 400). A stepwise Cox regression analysis yielded a model including four independent predictors of shorter PFS. Revised MALT-IPI has scores ranging from 0 to 5, calculated as a sum of one point for each of the following- age >60 years, elevated LDH, and stage III-IV; and two points for MMS. In the training cohort, the Revised MALT-IPI defined four risk groups: low risk (score 0, reference group), low-medium risk (score 1, HR = 1.85, p = .008), medium-high risk (score 2, HR = 3.84, p < .0001), and high risk (score 3+, HR = 8.48, p < .0001). Performance of the Revised MALT-IPI was similar in external validation cohorts. Revised MALT-IPI is a new index centered on disease characteristics that provides robust risk-stratification identifying a group of patients characterized by earlier progression of disease. Revised MALT-IPI can allow a more disease-adjusted management of patients with EMZL in clinical trials and practice.

Abstract
Mortality for patients with marginal zone and indolent B-cell lymphoma is largely unrelated to lymphoma in the first decade from diagnosis. Early progression or retreatment within 24 months of diagnosis is strongly associated with increased risk of lymphoma-related mortality.
Low-grade B-cell lymphomas other than follicular and small lymphocytic lymphoma (LGBCL) account for 10% of all B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Despite improvements in survival outcomes for these patients, little is known about cause of death (COD) in the rituximab era. For a better understanding, we studied 822 newly diagnosed patients with marginal zone, lymphoplasmacytic, and unclassifiable low-grade B-cell lymphoma prospectively enrolled in the University of Iowa/Mayo Clinic Specialized Program of Research Excellence Molecular Epidemiology Resource from 2002 to 2015. COD was assigned based on medical record review using a standard protocol. At a median follow-up of 107 months, 219 (27%) patients had died. The incidence of lymphoma-related deaths when pooling across subtypes was lower than non–lymphoma-related deaths (10-year incidence, 8.0%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.2-10.4 vs 13.6%; 95% CI: 11.2-16.6). The incidence of lymphoma-related deaths varied by subtype, ranging from 3.7% at 10 years in extranodal marginal zone lymphoma to 19.3% in lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma/Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Patients with early progression or retreatment events, defined using event-free survival at 24 months from diagnosis, had significantly higher likelihood of lymphoma-related death compared with patients without early events (10-year estimate: 19.1% vs 5.1%, respectively; P < .001), whereas the rates for non–lymphoma-related death were comparable in patients with or without early events (10-year estimates: 11.0% vs 15.3%, respectively). In conclusion, the most common COD in LGBCLs in the first decade after diagnosis was for causes other than lymphoma. Progression or retreatment within the first 2 years of diagnosis was a strong predictor for risk of lymphoma-related death.

Abstract
POD<24 months was associated with inferior survival among patients with MCL after both intensive and less intensive frontline treatment. Patients with POD<6 months or progressive disease after frontline treatment had the highest risk of early mortality.
Although an expanding array of effective treatments has resulted in recent improvement in survival of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), outcomes remain heterogeneous, and identification of prognostic factors remains a priority. We assessed the prognostic impact of time to progression of disease (POD) after first-line therapy among 455 patients with relapsed MCL. Patients were categorized by duration of first remission as PRF/POD6, defined as progressive disease during induction or POD within 6 months of diagnosis (n = 65; 14%); POD6-24, defined as POD between 6 and 24 months after diagnosis (n = 153; 34%); and POD>24, defined as POD >24 months after diagnosis (n = 237; 53%). The median overall survival from POD (OS2) was 1.3 years (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.9-2.4) for patients with PRF/POD6, 3 years (95% CI, 2-6.8) for those with POD6-24, and 8 years (95% CI, 6.2-NR) for those with POD>24. Median OS2 was inferior in patients with early POD (defined as PRF/POD6 or POD6-24) after both intensive and less intensive frontline treatment. The prognostic performance of time until POD was replicated in an independent cohort of 245 patients with relapsed MCL, with median OS2 of 0.3 years (95% CI, 0.1-0.5) for PRF/POD6, 0.8 years (95% CI, 0.6-0.9) for POD6-24, and 2.4 years (95% CI 2.1-2.7) for POD>24. Early POD is associated with inferior OS2 in patients with relapsed MCL, identifying a high-risk population for future prospective studies.

Abstract
Early progression of disease (POD) within two years from diagnosis is linked with poor overall survival (OS) in follicular lymphoma but its prognostic role is less clear in extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (EMZL). We sought to identify prognostic factors associated with early POD and to determine whether is associated with inferior OS. We analyzed the impact of early POD in the IELSG19 clinical trial dataset (training set of 401 patients randomly assigned to chlorambucil or rituximab or chlorambucil plus rituximab). Reproducibility was examined in a validation set of 287 patients who received systemic treatment. In both sets, we excluded from the analysis the patients who, within 24 months from treatment start, died without progression or were lost to follow-up without prior progression. OS was calculated from progression in patients with early POD and from 24 months after start of treatment in those without (reference group). Early POD was observed in 69 of the 384 (18%) evaluable patients of the IELSG19 study. Patients with high-risk MALT-IPI were more likely to have early POD (p=0.006). The 10-year OS rate was 64% in the early POD group and 85% in the reference group (HR= 2.42, 95%CI, 1.35-4.34; log-rank P=0.002). This prognostic impact was confirmed in the validation set, in which early POD was observed in 64 out of 224 (29%) evaluable patients with 10-year OS rate of 48% in the early POD group and 71% in the reference group (HR= 2.15, 95%CI, 1.19-3.90; log-rank P=0.009). In patients with EMZL who received front-line systemic treatment, early POD is associated with poorer survival and may represent a useful endpoint in future prospective clinical trials.

Abstract
Event-free survival at 12 months (EFS12) is a surrogate endpoint for long-term outcomes in many histologic lymphoma subtypes. However, most reports have primarily investigated the implication of EFS12 in advanced-stage non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). There are limited data regarding the significance of EFS12 in early-stage NHL. Herein, we evaluated the prognostic significance of EFS12 in patients with stage 1 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Out of 282 patients with stage 1 DLBCL who received intensive therapy, 227 (80.5%) achieved EFS12. The 4-year overall survival (OS) was 91.4% and 4.0% for patients who achieved and failed to achieve EFS12, respectively. Multivariable analyses demonstrated response to treatment and achievement of EFS12 as independent predictors for OS. In conclusion, our study demonstrated EFS12 as a powerful prognostic factor for stage 1 DLBCL. Further validation in more extensive prospective studies is warranted.

Abstract
Event free survival at 24 months (EFS24) has been described as a powerful predictor for outcome in several subtypes of B cell lymphoma. However, it was limitedly described in T cell lymphoma. We explored the implication of EFS24 as a predictor marker for peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL). We reviewed 293 systemic PTCL patients at 13 nationwide major university hospitals in Thailand from 2007 to 2014. The median event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of PTCL patients in our cohort was 16.3 and 27.7 months with corresponding 2-year EFS and 2-year OS of 45.8% and 51.9%, respectively. A total of 118 patients achieved EFS24 (no events during the first 24 mo). Patients who achieved EFS24 had better OS than patients who did not (2-y OS 92% vs 18.8%; HR, 0.1; P < .001). The standardized mortality ratio of patients achieving EFS24 was 18.7 (95% CI, 14.6-22.8). Multivariable analysis demonstrated performance status, histologic subtype, remission status, and EFS24 achievement as independent predictors for OS. Our study affirmed the value of EFS24 as a powerful prognostic factor for PTCL. Further validation in prospective study setting is warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) are indolent nonfollicular B-cell lymphomas (INFLs) and have heterogeneous clinical behavior. Recently, time to progression of disease at 24 months (POD24) was identified to stratify overall survival (OS) in follicular non-Hodgkin lymphoma and in INFL. Here, we examined the ability of POD24 to predict subsequent OS in a large, international cohort of MZL as part of the NF10 prospective international registry headed by Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL). POD24 was only calculated for MZL patients requiring immediate therapy and was defined as experiencing lymphoma progression within 24 months from diagnosis. Among the 1325 patients enrolled in the NF10 study, we identified 321 patients with MZL for whom immediate therapy was planned right after lymphoma diagnosis. Overall, POD24 was confirmed in 59 patients (18%). Three-year OS for patients with POD24 was 53% with a hazard ratio of 19.5 (95% confidence interval, 8.4-45) compared with patients without POD24 (3-year OS, 95%). Association of POD24 with OS was confirmed for the subgroup of splenic and extranodal MZLs. Assessment of POD24 stratifies subsequent outcome in MZL and identifies a high-risk population. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02904577.
