Cancer Category/Type
Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype
Definition / Description of Disease
- Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL) is a primary intestinal T-cell lymphoma derived from intraepithelial lymphocytes that, unlike enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma, is not clearly associated with celiac disease
Synonyms / Terminology
- Formerly and no longer referred to as type II enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL)
Epidemiology / Prevalence
- More prevalent in Asian and Hispanic/indigenous population
- < 1 per 1,000,000
Clinical Features
- Abdominal pain
- Weight loss
- Diarrhea
- Long-standing history of malabsorption is atypical
Sites of Involvement
- Small Intestine (jejunum > ileum) > large intestine > stomach
Morphologic Features
- Monomorphic small- to medium-sized neoplastic cells
- Uniformly round and regular nuclei
- Finely dispersed chromatin
- Inconspicuous nucleoli
- Abundant rim of pale cytoplasm
Immunophenotype
Postive: CD3, CD8, CD56, TCR gamma > TCR beta, TIA1, CD20 in 20% of cases, MATK in >80% of neoplastic cells helps distinguish from EATL, SYK [1] (distinguishes from EATL), NKP46
Variably positive between cases: granzyme B, perforin
Negative: CD5, EBV/EBER
INCORPORATE INTO TABLE
Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
- N/A
- No consistent gene fusion reported
Characteristic Chromosomal Aberrations / Patterns
- No pathognomonic aberrations/patterns described, but multiple genomic gains and losses are frequent
Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH[2][3]
In contrast to EATL, gains at 1q32.2-41 and 5q34-35.5 are reported less commonly. However, one study from Japan[3] described a series a non-celiac associated intestinal T-cell lymphoma with MEITL immunophenotype that demonstrated these gains at a frequency comparable to Western EATL, suggesting more overlap between Western EATL and Asian MEITL than previously thought, requiring additional investigation to further study these observations.
| Chromosome Number | Gain/Loss/Amp/LOH | Region | Genes | Prevalence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8q | gain | q24 | MYC | 25-38% |
| 9q | gain | q22.31;q33.2; q34.3-13 | PPP6C, ASS1,CARD9 | 75% |
| 1q | gain | q32.2-44 | CKS1B | 50% |
| 5q | gain | q34 | 38% | |
| 8p | gain | p11.23 | 63% | |
| 4p | gain | p15.1 | 63% | |
| 7q | gain | q34 | 63% | |
| 12p | gain | p13.31 | ETV6 | |
| 7p | loss | p14.1 | MAFK | 75% |
| 8p | loss | p23.3-p11.21 | 38% | |
| 16q | loss | 50% |
Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)[4][5][6]
| Gene* | Mutation | Oncogene/Tumor Suppressor/Other | Presumed Mechanism (LOF/GOF/Other; Driver/Passenger) | Prevalence (COSMIC/TCGA/Other) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SETD2 | mutation and/or deletion | Tumor Suppressor | LOF frameshift indels or nonsense mutation | 43% -93% |
| STAT5B | Oncogene | GOF | up to 63% | |
| JAK3 | Oncogene | GOF | 46% |
*Specific mutations in these genes can be found elsewhere (COSMIC, cBioPortal)
Epigenomics (Methylation)
- Defective H3K36 trimethylation[5]
Genes and Main Pathways Involved[4][7]
- JAK-STAT (most common)
- RAS
- P53
- TERT
- BBX
Include these in the standard table.
Diagnostic Testing Methods
- Careful clinicopathologic correlation: lack of prior history of celiac disease or histologic features of celiac disease if no prior history known or documented
- Immunohistochemical evaluation (see Immunophenotype above and Clinical Significance below)
- Some immunostains not routinely available at commercial labs (e.g. SYK, MATK)
Clinical Significance (Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapeutic Implications)
- Diagnosis
- Because of non-specific findings, careful clinical history, along with immunophenotype and morphology, is necessary to arrive at diagnosis
| IHC | Significance | Note |
|---|---|---|
| SYK | Possible role in diagnosis (inclusion) | Strongly diagnostic[1] |
| CD56 | Possible role in diagnosis (inclusion) | Contrasts with majority of EATL |
| EBV | Possible role in diagnosis (exclusion) | Strongly associated with extranodal NK/T- cell lymphoma, but negative in MEITL |
| MATK | Possible role in diagnosis (inclusion) | If present in >80% of tumor cells, helps distinguish from EATL |
| Gamma delta TCR | Possible role in diagnosis (inclusion) | Much more frequent in MEITL compared to EATL (silent or alpha beta TCR) |
- Prognosis
- Poor (median survival of 7 months)
- Resection, chemotherapy combined with autologous stem cell transplantation improves survival [8]
- Therapeutic Implications
Familial Forms
- Not described
Other Information
None
