Abstract
Objective Concurrent follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (defined as FL/DLBCL) have been considered an important pathological feature in cell lymphoma. However, clinicopathological information and prognostic factors in these cases are scarce. The aim of this study was to construct a prediction index to compare with traditional prognostic models. Methods Retrospectively enrolled, previously untreated FL/DLBCL (n = 121) patients, as well as those with pure FL 1-3a (n = 471), were assessed. De novo DLBCL (n = 529) were used as controls. Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted to compare the outcomes among the three groups. Multivariate analysis identified risk factors associated with overall survival (OS) in FL/DLBCL patients. A clinicopathological prognosis index (CPPI) was developed to predict OS based on the Cox proportional hazards model. Results The outcomes of FL/DLBCL patients were intermediate between pure FL 1-3a and de novo DLBCL patients, with a 5-year PFS of 70%, 59%, and 48% (P < 0.05) and 5-year OS of 80%, 70% and 60% (P < 0.05), respectively. Cox regression analysis showed that the prognostic factors of OS for FL/DLBCL patients included FL grade, cell of origin, and Ann Arbor stage. A nomogram and clinicopathological prognostic index (CPPI) were developed to predict the OS for FL/DLBCL patients based on these factors. The area under the curve (AUC) of the CPPI for 3- and 5-year OS prediction was 0.782 and 0.860, respectively. This was superior to that of the International Prognostic Index (IPI), Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (FLIPI), and FLIPI2 in the 0.540-0.819 (P < 0.01) range. Conclusions A valid OS estimation in FL/DLBCL patients, using the recommended CPPI, may be useful in routine clinical practice.
