Cancer Category/Type

Mature B-cell neoplasms

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma

Definition / Description of Disease

This is a distinct entity in the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification system[1]. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is a chronic lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by monoclonal B cell proliferation. CLL is defined by the presence of >5x109/L monoclonal B-cells in the peripheral blood. Cells are small, mature appearing lymphocytes with light chain restriction by flow cytometry. The term small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) is used for cases with <5x109/L circulating monoclonal B-cells and documented nodal, splenic, or other extramedullary involvement[2].

Synonyms / Terminology

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia, B-cell type; chronic lymphoid leukemia; chronic lymphatic leukemia

Epidemiology / Prevalence

CLL is the most common leukemia in the Western world with an annual incidence of approximately 5/100,000, comprising 25% to 30% of all leukemias in the United States. The incidence increases with age with a median age at diagnosis of 70 years. CLL can also present in younger individuals with approximately 10% of cases diagnosed in individuals less than 55 years of age[3]. CLL occurrence is more prevalent in anglo americans and much lower in asian populations[4].

Clinical Features

Most (90%) patients with CLL are asymptomatic and are diagnosed based on routine blood tests[1]. Only 5-10% of patients with CLL present with symptoms of fever, weight loss, night sweats, and/or fatigue[4].

Signs and Symptoms Asymptomatic (incidental finding on complete blood counts)

Weight loss, fever, night sweats

Fatigue

Lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly (less common)

Laboratory Findings absolute lymphocytosis

anemia

thrombocytopenia

paraprotein, usually IgM type (~10% of patients) hypogammaglobulinemia (~30% of patients at diagnosis)

Sites of Involvement

CLL/SLL involves the blood, bone marrow, and secondary lymphoid tissues such as the spleen, lymph nodes, and Waldeyer ring. Extranodal involvement (e.g. of the skin, gastrointestinal tract, or CNS) occurs in a small subset of cases[5].

Morphologic Features

Lymph Nodes: Enlarged lymph nodes show diffuse architectural effacement by a proliferation of small lymphocytes with variably prominent scattered paler proliferation centers (pseudofollicles)[6]. The predominant cell in the diffuse areas is a typical CLL cell (small lymphocyte with scant cytoplasm, and clumped chromatin). Proliferation centers are composed of small lymphocytes, prolymphocytes, and paraimmunoblasts. Mitotic activity is usually very low.

Bone Marrow: Biopsy may show interstitial, nodular, mixed (nodular and interstitial), or diffuse involvement. Diffuse involvement is usually associated with more advanced disease[7]. Paratrabecular aggregates are not typical. Proliferation centers can be observed, although they are not as prominent as in lymph nodes, and follicular dendritic cells may be present[8]. Most cases have > 30% CLL cells in the bone marrow aspirate[2].

Peripheral Blood: Smudge or basket cells are typically observed. In most cases, besides typical CLL cells, other lymphoid cells like prolymphocytes are also observed, but they usually constitute < 15% of the lymphoid cells.

Immunophenotype

CLL cells express CD19, CD20, CD5, CD23, CD43, CD200, and LEF1[9][10]. The levels of surface CD20, surface immunoglobulin and CD79b is low compared to normal B-cells[11]. Cells have kappa or lambda restricted Ig light chain expression.

Finding Marker
Positive (universal) CD5, CD43 and strongly positive

for CD23 and CD200

Negative (universal) CD10 is negative

FMC7 is usually negative or

only weakly expressed.

Subset CD5― or CD23―, FMC7+,

strong surface immunoglobulin, or

CD79b+[12]

Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)

Approximately 32-42% of CLL patients are found to have a translocation noted on conventional G-banding cytogenetics[13][14][15]. Balanced translocations involving IGH are uncommon (4-9% of patients)[16].

Chromosomal Rearrangement Genes in Fusion (5’ or 3’ Segments) Pathogenic Derivative Prevalence Diagnostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Prognostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Therapeutic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Notes
t(14;19) IGH::BCL3 No Yes No Inferior prognosis
t(14;18) IGH::BCL2 No No No No negative effect on outcome observed[17]
t(8;14) IGH::MYC <1% No Yes No Prolymphocytes are detected in most of these cases. MYC translocations are associated with an inferior prognosis[18][19].

Individual Region Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH

  • Approximately 80% of CLL patients have a cytogenetic abnormality detectable by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
  • Deletion of chromosome 13q14 detected by FISH is the most common cytogenetic abnormality in CLL. The deleted region includes two microRNAs, miR15A and miR16-1[20]. These microRNAs inhibit the expression of genes involved in apoptosis and cell cycle regulation. Deletion of miR15A and miR16-1 leads to upregulation of BCL2[21]. Deletion of 13q14 as the sole cytogenetic abnormality is associated with a favorable prognosis. Deletions may be heterozygous or homozygous with a similar prognosis. Individuals with a high percentage of nuclei with 13q deletion (>65%) may have a less favorable prognosis[22]
  • Deletion of 17p, which includes TP53, is associated with poor prognosis and resistance to standard chemotherapy regimens[23].

CLL Tables - A list of clinically significant and/or recurrent CNAs and CN-LOH with potential or strong diagnostic, prognostic and treatment implications in CLL. Table derived from Chun et al., 2018 [[24]] with permission from Cancer Genetics. See CLL Tables: Regions of Recurrent Copy Number Change and CN-LOH.

Chr # Gain / Loss / Amp / LOH Minimal Region Genomic Coordinates [Genome Build] Minimal Region Cytoband Diagnostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Prognostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Therapeutic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Notes
13 Loss 13q14 No Yes No Most common cytogenetic abnormality. Isolated 13q- is associated with favorable prognosis[20].
11 Loss 11q22.3 No Yes No Deletion of ATM. Associated with a poor prognosis.
17 Loss 17p13.1 No Yes Yes Deletion of TP53. Patients with 17p deletion show resistance to genotoxic chemotherapies. TP53 deletion is associated with a poor prognosis[23].


Characteristic Chromosomal Patterns

Common cytogenetic abnormalities include deletions of 13q, 11q, 6q, and 17p, and trisomy 12. Complex karyotypes (three or more chromosomal abnormalities) are detected in approximately 16% of patients[13][25].

Chromosomal Pattern Diagnostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Prognostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Therapeutic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Notes
13q14 deletion No Yes No Can also be detected in the homozygous state. Biallelic deletions are often cryptic and not cytogenetically visible[26]. 13q deletion as the sole abnormality is typically associated with a good prognosis, however, CLL with a high percentage of nuclei with 13q deletion may have a more aggressive clinical course[27]
11q22.3 deletion No Yes No 11q deletions are most often seen in patients with advanced CLL and are associated with more rapid disease progression[28][23]
Trisomy 12 No Unknown No Conflicting evidence on prognostic significance. As a sole abnormality may be associated with low risk. Associated with intermediate risk if NOTCH1 mutation is present[29]
6q21 deletion No Yes No Intermediate risk[30]
17p13 deletion No Yes Yes poor prognosis[23]
Complex karyotype No Yes No Patients with a complex karyotype have a shortened overall survival and are associated with 11q and/or 17p deletions[25][31].

Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)

  • IGHV genes are mutated in 50-70% of cases and unmutated in 30-50%.
  • Unmutated IGHV genes have been shown to have a poorer prognosis, along with TP53, BIRC3, NOTCH1, and SF3B1 mutations.

IGHV mutations Other (IGVH unmutated B lymphocytes are naïve cells. IGHV mutated B lymphocytes are previously-triggered, postgerminal center “memory" cells) 50-70% No Yes Yes Unmutated IGHV genes have a poor prognosis and respond poorly to continuous multiregimen chemotherapy[32][33]


NOTCH1; frameshift, nonsense, and missense mutations Other (may be important for follicular differentiation and possible cell fate selection within the follicle) 5-12.3% FBXW7 mutation and trisomy 12 SF3B1 mutation No Yes No intermediate risk[34][29]
SF3B1; missense (most) Other (part of the spliceosome machinery) 9-10% Del(11q) NOTCH1 and FBXW7 mutations No Yes No intermediate risk[34][29]
TP53; missense (most) Tumor suppressor gene 7.1% No Yes No High risk[34][29]
BIRC3; frameshift and nonsense Tumor suppressor gene 7.2% No Yes Yes High risk and subject to failure of FCR chemoimmunotherapy[29][35][36]

Epigenomic Alterations

Whole genome methylation studies have identified three epigenetic subgroups of CLL[37] [PMID: 25151957]. These subgroups are related to different stages of B-cell maturation and include naïve B-cell like, intermediate, and memory B-cell like CLL. Naïve B-cell like epigenetic subgroup mainly has unmutated IGHV, whereas the memory B-like subgroup mainly have mutated IGHV genes. The intermediate epigenetic subgroup was also found to have mainly mutated IGHV, however, is associated with a worse prognosis than the memory B-like subgroup. The epigenetic classification was found to be an independent prognostic factor for time to first treatment[37][38].

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
NOTCH1; PEST domain truncation Notch signaling Abnormally stabilized Notch signaling[39]
TP53; deletion and mutations DNA damage response Cell proliferation and reduced response to cytotoxic chemotherapy[40]
BIRC3; mutations NF-kB signaling Activation of non-canonical NF-kB signaling[35]

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Cytogenetics (FISH, CpG-stimulated Karyotype, SNP microarray)

Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Variable Region Gene (IGHV) mutation status

Familial Forms

Familial predisposition is found in 5-10% of patients with CLL[41]. The overall risk of developing CLL is 2-7 times higher in first-degree relatives of individuals with CLL.
