View SamplesThe assignment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma into cell-of-origin (COO) groups is becoming increasingly important with the emergence of novel therapies that have selective biological activity in germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) or activated B-cell-like (ABC) groups. The LLMPP's Lymph2Cx assay is a parsimonious digital gene-expression (NanoString) based test for COO assignment in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPET) routinely produced in standard diagnostic processes. The 20-gene assay was trained using 51 FFPET biopsies; the locked assay was then validated using an independent cohort of 68 FFPET biopsies. Comparisons were made with COO assignment using the original COO model on matched frozen tissue. In the validation cohort the assay was accurate, with only one case with definitive COO being incorrectly assigned, and robust, with >95% concordance of COO assignment between 2 independent laboratories. These qualities, along with the rapid turn-around-time, make Lymph2Cx attractive for implementation in clinical trials and, ultimately, patient management.

View SamplesDespite advances in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment, about 20% of patients still die due to progressive disease. Current prognostic models predict treatment outcome with imperfect accuracy, and clinically relevant biomarkers are yet to be established that improve upon the International Prognostic Scoring (IPS) system. We analyzed 130 frozen diagnostic lymph node biopsies from classical HL patients by gene expression profiling to describe cellular signatures correlated with treatment outcome.

View SamplesPeripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) encompasses a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with generally poor clinical outcome. Currently 50% of PTCL cases are not classifiable: PTCL-not otherwise specified (NOS). Gene-expression profiles on 372 PTCL cases were analyzed and robust molecular classifiers and oncogenic pathways that reflect the pathobiology of tumor cells and their microenvironment were identified for major PTCL-entities, including 114 angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), 31 anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive and 48 ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma, 14 adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma and 44 extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma that were further separated into NK-cell and gdT-cell lymphomas. Thirty-seven percent of morphologically diagnosed PTCL-NOS cases were reclassified into other specific subtypes by molecular signatures. Reexamination, immunohistochemistry, and IDH2 mutation analysis in reclassified cases supported the validity of the reclassification. Two major molecular subgroups can be identified in the remaining PTCL-NOS cases characterized by high expression of either GATA3 (33%; 40/121) or TBX21 (49%; 59/121). The GATA3 subgroup was significantly associated with poor overall survival (P=.01). High expression of cytotoxic genesignaturewithin the TBX21 subgroup also showed poor clinical outcome (P=.05). InAITL, high expression of several signatures associated with the tumor microenvironment was significantly associated with outcome. A combined prognostic score was predictive of survival in an independent cohort (P=.004).

View SamplesGene expression profiling of DLBCL patient samples was performed to investigate, whether molecular gene expression signatures retain their prognostic significance in patients treated with chemotherapy plus Rituximab. The lymphnode, germinal center signature and a new angiogenesis signature were combined to a final multivariate model which defined quartile groups among Rituximab-CHOP-treated patients with distinct 3-year overall survival rates.

View SamplesBased on preliminary data demonstrating that macrophages are critical regulators of Helicobacter pylori colonization and gastric pathology in mice, we sought to investigate how macrophages may serve as bacterial reservoirs of intracellular H. pylori. Overall design: BMDM were isolated from WT and PPARg-/- mice and cultured with M-CSF for 7 days to promote macrophage differentiation. Fully differentiation macrophages were challenged with H. pylori strains SS1 at an MOI of 10 for 15 minutes. Extracellular bacteria was then eliminated by gentamycin treatment. Cells were collected at 0, 60, 120, 240, 360 and 720 minutes post gentamycin treatment to ascertain whole transcriptome differential gene expression during infection.

View SamplesWe report that previously described molecular subtypes of colorectal cancer are associated with the response to therapy in patients with metastatic disease. We also identified a patient population with high FOLFIRI sensitivity, as indicated by their 2.7-fold longer overall survival when treated with FOLFIRI, as first-line regimen, instead of FOLFOX. Our results demonstrate the interest of molecular classifications to develop tailored therapies for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
