Поражение центральной нервной системы при диффузной В-клеточной крупноклеточной лимфоме

Abstract

Introduction. Current approaches used to predict the recurrence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) need to be improved. Data from national studies on the incidence and clinical and laboratory characteristics of primary CNS DLBCL and secondary CNS involvement in systemic DLBCL are fragmentary and do not allow us to assess the overall picture. Aim. An assessment on the territory of the Siberian metropolis of data on the incidence and clinical and laboratory characteristics of DLBCL patients with primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) and secondary CNS involvement, as well as validation of the CNS-International Prognostic Index (CNS-IPI) on this sample. Materials and methods. The study group consisted of 47 patients with PCNSL and 35 with secondary CNS involvement in systemic DLBCL, the comparison group consisted of 202 patients with DLBCL without CNS involvement. Results. All patients with secondary CNS involvement in DLBCL belonged to the medium and high risk groups (p = 0.007) according to the CNS-IPI, which confirms its prognostic value. The risk factors for secondary CNS involvement in DLBCL were ECOG performance status ≥ 2, HIV infection, age over 60 years, a history of chronic kidney disease, ≥ 2 extranodal sites, and high expression of Ki-67 (>75% positive tumor cells), non-GCB subtype of lymphoma, and presence of anemia. When assessing the characteristics of the clinical course of the disease, a number of peculiarities of the primary and secondary CNS involvement in DLBCL were identified. In particular, in terms of overall survival, the PCNSL group had a more favorable prognosis (p = 0.051). Conclusion. The results of the study confirm the importance of the CNS-IPI as a tool of a hematologist to determine the group of patients needing prevention of recurrence of DLBCL in the CNS. New data on a higher incidence of chronic kidney disease, arterial hypertension and thyroid disorders in the group of patients with PCNSL require further study.
