Buzzword / Concept What It Tells You
IPI / R-IPI / NCCN-IPI factors age >60, stage III–IV, ↑LDH, ECOG ≥2, >1 extranodal site (NCCN-IPI quantifies age/LDH + specific extranodal sites)
Hans algorithm IHC: CD10 → BCL6 → IRF4/MUM1; GCB = better prognosis; non-GCB ≈ ABC
Double-hit (HGBL, MYC + BCL2/BCL6 by FISH) 4–8 %, usually GCB, poor with R-CHOP → DA-EPOCH-R
Double-expressor (DEL, MYC ≥40 % + BCL2 ≥50 % by IHC) ~20–30 %, usually ABC, intermediate-poor; NOT reclassified as HGBL, treat as standard DLBCL
Primary mediastinal B-cell (PMBL) young women, anterior mediastinal mass, CD30+, PD-L1/2 amplified → DA-EPOCH-R; pembro at relapse
Primary CNS DLBCL immunocompetent adults, ring-enhancing lesions, avoid steroids before biopsy; HD-MTX ≥3.5 g/m² backbone, ASCT or WBRT consolidation
EBV+ DLBCL, NOS EBER-ISH+; any age; aggressive, extranodal predilection
MYC + BCL6 only (no BCL2) by FISH NOT high-risk — manage as standard DLBCL

分類與診斷

Diagnostic Criteria

  • Excisional biopsy is preferred (FNA insufficient) — needed for architecture + IHC + FISH.
  • WHO 5e / ICC 2022: "DLBCL, NOS" excludes specific entities (PMBL, primary CNS, leg-type, EBV+, T-cell/histiocyte-rich, etc.).
  • Cell-of-origin classification (Hans IHC vs GEP) influences research stratification but does not change first-line treatment outside trials.
  • HGBL with MYC + BCL2 ± BCL6 rearrangements (formerly "double-/triple-hit") is its own WHO 5e entity and changes treatment.
  • Staging: Lugano (Ann Arbor + bulk + B-symptoms). PET-CT for staging and end-of-treatment response (Deauville score).

Workup

  • PET-CT (staging + Deauville at end of treatment).
  • Excisional or core biopsy with H&E, IHC (CD20, CD10, BCL6, IRF4/MUM1, MYC, BCL2, Ki-67, CD30, EBER-ISH).
  • FISH for MYC, BCL2, BCL6 mandatory (rule out HGBL).
  • Bone marrow biopsy if PET equivocal or cytopenias (PET-positive marrow can substitute).
  • CSF analysis if CNS-IPI 4–6 or kidney/adrenal/testicular/breast involvement.
  • HBV/HCV/HIV serology + echo/MUGA before anthracycline.
  • β-hCG in females of reproductive age.

陷阱與考點

Pearls / Pitfalls

  • Pola-R-CHP is only for advanced-stage IPI ≥2 (or smIPI >1 in stage I-II). Not studied in and not recommended for IPI 0–1. Picking Pola-R-CHP for low-risk DLBCL is the wrong answer.42
  • Double-expressor ≠ Double-hit. DEL = IHC protein co-expression (MYC ≥40 % + BCL2 ≥50 %); double-hit/HGBL = FISH-confirmed rearrangements. DEL is treated as standard DLBCL with R-CHOP/Pola-R-CHP, NOT escalated to DA-EPOCH-R.5
  • CNS-IPI ≠ IPI. CNS-IPI adds kidney/adrenal involvement as a sixth risk factor. HD-MTX (IV ≥3–3.5 g/m²) is preferred over IT chemo for parenchymal CNS prophylaxis — most rituximab-era relapses are parenchymal (~70–80 %), which IT poorly penetrates. Recent retrospective data even question whether prophylaxis reduces CNS relapse at all — this is an evolving area.67
  • MYC + BCL6 (no BCL2) is NOT high-grade. Only MYC + BCL2 (± BCL6) by FISH defines HGBL/double-hit. Isolated MYC + BCL6 rearrangement is managed as standard DLBCL.5
  • Avoid steroids before primary CNS lymphoma biopsy — they cause rapid lymphocyte lysis and can render biopsy non-diagnostic for weeks.
  • CAR-T 2L beats ASCT for early relapse. ZUMA-7 (axi-cel) and TRANSFORM (liso-cel) both showed superior EFS vs salvage chemo + ASCT in primary-refractory/early-relapse DLBCL. Bridging therapy (Pola-R-bendamustine, R-ICE, GDP, GEMOX) is essential to control disease pre-leukapheresis. Hold bendamustine until AFTER leukapheresis to avoid T-cell depletion.38
  • CAR-T toxicities: see CART — CRS (tocilizumab + steroids), ICANS (steroids; tocilizumab does NOT cross BBB).
