PIM1 and CD79B Mutation Status Impacts the Outcome of Primary Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma of the CNS.

ABSTRACT: Primary diffuse large B cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (CNS DLBCL) is a rare malignancy with a distinct genetic profile. The clinicopathological significance of the mutation patterns remains unknown. Forty cases of primary CNS DLBCL were subjected to targeted exome sequencing covering 413 genes, including MYD88, CD79B and PIM1. Mutational analysis recognized two groups. The CDP (including CD79B and/or PIM1mutations) group was identified in 27 cases (67.5%), and the non-CDP (without CD79B and PIM1 mutations) group was identified in 13 cases 32.5%). The CDP group tended to occur in older patients (median age 57.0 vs. 48.4 years, p=0.015). Patients in the CDP group had a significantly longer 2-year overall survival (OS) (76% and 40
