Biological signatures of the International Prognostic Index in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Abstract

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a highly aggressive subtype of lymphoma with clinical and biological heterogeneity. The International Prognostic Index (IPI) shows great prognostic capability in the era of rituximab, but the biological signatures of IPI remain to be discovered. In this study, we analyzed the clinical data in a large cohort of 2592 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL. Among them, 1233 underwent DNA sequencing for oncogenic mutations, and 487 patients underwent RNA sequencing for lymphoma microenvironment (LME) alterations. Based on IPI scores, patients were categorized into 4 distinct groups, with 5-year overall survival of 41.6%, 55.3%, 71.7%, and 89.7%, respectively. MCD-like subtype was associated with age of >60 years, multiple extranodal involv
