Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinicopathologic features of patients with limited-stage mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma refractory to radiotherapy have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to elucidate clinicopathologic features of localized conjunctival MALT lymphoma concerning radiosensitivity by analyzing cell proliferation and expression of mismatch repair proteins. METHODS We enrolled 26 patients with localized conjunctival MALT lymphoma treated with radiotherapy from November 2007 to March 2020. Monoclonal immunoglobulin H gene rearrangement was tested in addition to histopathologic evaluation. Thirty-six specimens were immunostained with antibodies to Ki-67 and MutL protein homologue 1 (MLH1), MutS protein homologue 2 (MSH2), and MutS protein homologue 6 (MSH6). Positive rates under a high-power field at a hot spot were counted manually. RESULTS After radiotherapy, 21 patients showed clinical disappearance of the tumour without recurrence (effective group). Three patients showed temporary disappearance of the tumour, which later recurred (relapse group). Two patients did not show disappearance of the tumour (ineffective group). The 2 ineffective patients were young, had bilateral lesions, and received x-ray beam therapy. The mean positive rates of Ki-67, MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 were higher in tumours with complete remission (CR) than in those without CR (23.4% ± 4.0% and 18.7% ± 4.7%, 14.7% ± 2.3% and 7.1% ± 3.7%, 23.9% ± 4.7% and 14.4% ± 5.2%, and 11.5% ± 3.2% and 5.4% ± 2.2%; p > 0.05 for each, respectively). CONCLUSIONS A few patients could not achieve CR following radiotherapy, whereas there were no significant differences in proliferation activity and mismatch repair proteins between tumours with and without CR.

[PMID: 32022486 PMCID: PMC7131835 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.2870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2019] [Revised: 01/03/2020] [Accepted: 01/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Microsatellite instability (MSI) has been investigated as a prognostic and predictive factor for chemotherapy in colorectal cancer and has recently been demonstrated to be predictive of the PD‐1/PD‐L1 checkpoint blockade response in various solid tumors. However, MSI status in diffuse large B‐cell lymphomas (DLBCLs) has not been thoroughly explored. This study investigated MSI status in DLBCLs and analyzed the associations between MSI and clinicopathologic characteristics and clinical outcomes. Ninety‐two cases of primary DLBCLs treated with R‐CHOP/CHOP chemotherapy between 2009 and 2017 were collected. MSI detection was performed by the Promega MSI Analysis System. The protein expression of MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 was detected by immunohistochemistry. The associations of MSI‐H and MSI‐L with progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed by COX models and Kaplan–Meier curves. The correlations of complete response (CR) after R‐CHOP/CHOP chemotherapy with MSI‐H and MSI‐L were examined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, respectively. 3 of 92 cases (3.2%) were high MSI (MSI‐H), and 9 cases (9/92, 9.8%) exhibited low MSI (MSI‐L). One case with MSI‐H showed negative expression of MSH2 and MSH6. Univariate analysis indicated that MSI‐L was correlated with poor response to R‐CHOP/CHOP chemotherapy in DLBCLs (OR, 0.178; 95% CI, 0.041‐0.776; P = .022). Multivariate analysis showed that MSI‐L was an independent predictive factor for non‐CR to R‐CHOP/CHOP chemotherapy (OR, 0.144; 95% CI, 0.027‐0.761; P = .023). Kaplan‐Meier curves showed that there was a trend that MSI‐H patients had favorable PFS (P = .36) and OS (P = .48), which did not have statistical significance and MSI‐L was not significantly correlated with PFS (P = .24) and OS (P = .52).Our study indicated that there existed MSI‐H and MSI‐L in DLBCLs. MSI‐L could be an independent predictive factor for the chemotherapy response in DLBCLs.
