ABSTRACT
To determine the expression of CD-10, BCL-6 and MUM-1 in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma [DLBCL] and its association with immediate clinical response after six cycles of CHOP chemotherapy. Analytical study. Armed Forces Institute of Pathology [AFIP], Rawalpindi in collaboration with Nuclear medicine, Oncology and Radiotherapy Institute [NORI], Islamabad from September 2010 to September 2011. CD-10, BCL-6 and MUM-1 antibodies were applied on cases diagnosed as DLBCL. Immediate clinical response was noted after 6 cycles of chemotherapy with the help of oncologist and divided into complete response, partial response, stable disease and relapse/ progression. Patient's age, results of expression of CD-10, BCL-6 and MUM-1 and results of immediate clinical response to chemotherapy were noted. Regarding analysis of prognostic markers [CD-10, BCL-6 and MUM-1], chi-square test was used for immediate clinical response to chemotherapy in DLBCL. CD-10 was positive in 40% cases, BCL-6 in 58.7% cases and MUM-1 was positive in 46.7% cases. About 41.3% of patients showed complete response, 10.6% partial response, 17.3% stable disease and 30.8% showed relapse/progression. CD-10 expression in DLBCL was associated with better immediate clinical response [p = 0.011] whereas MUM-1 expression in DLBCL was associated with poor immediate clinical response [p < 0.0001]. However, there was no statistically significant association of BCL-6 with immediate clinical response [p = 0.22]. DLBCL shows expression of CD-10, BCL-6 and MUM-1 in nearly fifty percent of the cases. CD-10 is associated with good whereas MUM is associated with poor response. However, there was no association of BCL-6 with immediate clinical response
