Although most patients have an adverse clinical course, some have a better survival than others. The most consistently reported adverse prognostic parameter is a high mitotic rate. Recently, it has been shown that hypermutation in the immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene occurs in a subset of mantle cell lymphomas. It is, however, unclear whether the mutational status is stable over time within a given case, whether hypermutation might be influenced by therapy and how it is related to other relevant biological features of mantle cell lymphoma. In this study, we analyzed 23 typical mantle cell lymphoma cases with respect to mutational status and compared the results with clinicopathological and genetic data to determine whether the presence of mutation indicates a subentity with clinical or pathological relevance. We found somatic hypermutation in 26% of our cases and, interestingly, one case showed ongoing somatic hypermutation. In tumor cells of both mutated and unmutated cases, we found a preferential usage of VH3-21 (23%) and VH4-34 (19%). No significant correlations were found between mutation status and the other morphological and genetic features analyzed. In conclusion, our results provide additional evidence that mutation status in mantle cell lymphoma is better interpreted as a feature within the spectrum of disease that seems to have little clinical or pathological relevance.

  • Primary Splenic and Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma
    J. Clin. Exp. Hematopathol Vol. 45, No. 1, Aug 2005 Review Article Primary Splenic and Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma: Jacques Diebold, Agne`s Le Tourneau, Eva Comperat, Thierry Molina and Jose´ e Audouin Primary splenic and nodal marginal zone (MZ) lymphomas are rare small B cell lymphomas presenting with similar histopathologic features. The neoplastic cell population mostly consists of monocytoid B cells organized in a MZ pattern, associated with centrocytoid cells colonizing follicles. About 50% of cases have a monotypic plasma cell component. The different histopathologic patterns and differential diagnosis are discussed here. Both diseases share a similar immunophenotype, with the expression of B-cell associated antigens and restriction of immunoglobulin light chain. The only difference is the more frequent expression of IgD in splenic than in nodal lymphomas. The most recent findings in genetics and molecular biology are presented and discussed. The main clinical and biological symptoms are described and the similarity of some cases with Waldenstro¨ms macroglobulinemia is stressed. Both lymphomas present with the same type of bone marrow involvement with a high frequency of intravascular infiltrates, which can be associated with interstitial and nodular infiltrates. Transformation into diffuse large B cell lymphoma occurs in about 10 to 15% of the cases. The outcome in many splenic MZ lymphomas is characterized by a lengthy survival after splenectomy (9 to 13 years or longer), despite the absence of a consensus on the optimal treatment. Nodal MZ lymphoma has a more aggressive evolution and seems to only be curable at an early stage. Further studies are needed of both lymphomas to improve treatment and prognosis.

Here we report a 71 years old male patient with an aggressive MCL and depict the clonal evolution from initial diagnosis of typical MCL to relapsed blastoid MCL. During the course of disease, the patient was diagnosed with Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL), and received CHL therapeutic regimen. Molecular analysis by next generation sequencing of both MCL and CHL demonstrated clonally related CHL with characteristic immunophenotype and PDL1/2 gains. Moreover, our data illustrate the clonal heterogeneity and acquisition of additional genetic aberrations including a rare fusion of SEC22B-NOTCH2 in the process of clonal evolution.

    Journal of Clinical Medicine Review Relapsed Mantle Cell Lymphoma: Current Management, Recent Progress, and Future Directions David A Bond 1,*, Peter Martin 2 and Kami J Maddocks 1 1 Division of Hematology, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA; [email protected] 2 Division of Hematology and Oncology, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, NY 11021, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The increasing number of approved therapies for relapsed mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) provides patients effective treatment options, with increasing complexity in prioritization and se- quencing of these therapies. Chemo-immunotherapy remains widely used as frontline MCL treatment with multiple targeted therapies available for relapsed disease. The Bruton’s tyrosine kinase in- hibitors (BTKi) ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and zanubrutinib achieve objective responses in the majority of patients as single agent therapy for relapsed MCL, but differ with regard to toxicity profile and dosing schedule. Lenalidomide and bortezomib are likewise approved for relapsed MCL and are active as monotherapy or in combination with other agents. Venetoclax has been used off-label for the treatment of relapsed and refractory MCL, however data are lacking regarding the efficacy of this approach particularly following BTKi treatment. Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies have emerged as highly effective therapy for relapsed MCL, with the CAR-T treatment brexucabtagene autoleucel now approved for relapsed MCL. In this review the authors summarize evidence to date for currently approved MCL treatments for relapsed disease including Citation: Bond, D.A; Martin, P.; sequencing of therapies, and discuss future directions including combination treatment strategies Maddocks, K.J Relapsed Mantle Cell and new therapies under investigation.
