Cancer Category / Type

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Definition / Description of Disease

Aggressive subtype of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. HSTL is an extranodal T-cell lymphoma that is known to have a poor response to therapy and an overall poor prognosis. This lymphoma is characterized by sinusoidal infiltration of the liver spleen and often bone marrow by cytotoxic T-cells that most commonly express the γδ T-cell receptor. Less commonly, some patients may have a variant of this lymphoma that is associated with αβ expressing cytotoxic T-cells[1][2][3]. Most cases occur de novo, with a subset of approximately 20-30% occurring in the setting of iatrogenic immunosuppression[3]. Thus, this entity is also included in the list of the World Health Organization's post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders[2].

Synonyms / Terminology

  • Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTL)

Epidemiology / Prevalence

  • 1-2% of T-natural killer cell lymphomas[2]
  • ~80% are Classic γδ type[2]
  • M:F ~ 3:1[2]
  • Median age ~ 35 years old[2]

Please incorporate this section into the relevant tables found in:
  • Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
  • Individual Region Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH
  • Characteristic Chromosomal Patterns
  • Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)
  • 7q aberrations and trisomy 8 are considered specific for HSTL, but not sensitive[3]
  • SETD2, INO80, TET3, and STAT5B - seen almost exclusively in hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, compared to other B and T-cell lymphoma, which can support a diagnosis of HSTL in difficult cases[4]
    • RHOA, has not been seen in HSTL cases, and is more commonly seen in peripheral T-cell lymphoma, NOS and angioimmunoblastic T- cell lymphoma[4]
  • PI3KCD, JAK1/2, and STAT5B mutations suggest potential therapeutic targets[3]
  • SyK expression was seen one study, which is not typical for normal T-cells[5]
    • Syk is a protein tyrosine kinase usually involved in B-cell receptor signaling[5]
    • Syk inhibitors may be a potential targeted therapeutic option[5]
  • A single study has shown use of IFNα2c therapy-induced changes in CpG methylation[6]
    • CpG methylation changes have the potential to serve as biomarkers of drug responses and/or disease progression[6]
  • The likely methylation of AIM1 seen in HSTL may provide rationale for demethylating agents as therapeutic options[5]

editv4:Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.
Gene Mutation Role/function Presumed Mechanism (LOF/GOF/Other; Driver/Passenger) Prevalence[4] Notes
STAT3 Src homology 2 (SH2) domain Signaling pathway Oncogenic driver mutation 9%
  • Also seen in 40% of T-large granular lymphocyte leukemia[3]
STAT5b Src homology 2 (SH2) domain Signaling pathway Oncogenic driver mutation 31%
  • Highest functional potency: STAT5B N642H and V712E mutations[3]
  • One study showed increased CD56 expression with STAT5b[9]
  • Also seen in ~2% of T-large granular lymphocyte leukemia[3]
PIK3CD Signaling pathway Activate signaling pathways important to cell survival[4] 9%
SETD2 SET2–RPB1 interacting domain (SRI) domain ( 31 ) at the COOH-terminus of the SETD2 protein product

(other mutations interspersed among different domains have also been seen)[4]

Tumor suppressor gene, chromatin modifier*[4] Biallelic loss of function[4] 71% (cases showing at least one loss of function mutation)
  • Most frequently silenced gene and most frequent mutated chromatin modifier in HSTL[4]
  • More than 44% of patients had more than 1 mutation in SETD2.[3]
INO80 Chromatin modifier* 21%
TET3 Chromatin modifier* 15%
SMARCA2 Chromatin modifier* 10%

*Chromatin modifiers make up the most commonly mutated genes in HSTL[4]

Specific mutations in the above genes can be found elsewhere (COSMIC, cBioPortal)

Important to note:

Type Gene/Region/Other
Mutually Exclusive STAT3 and STAT5b
  • Only 1 reported case with both mutations present[4]

Epigenomic Alterations

  • AIM1 is dramatically reduced in HSTL likely due to promoter methylation[5]
    • Suggest AIM1 may play a role as a tumor suppressor gene in HSTL oncogenesis[5]
  • Eight consistently hypermethylated genes (BCL11B, CD5, CXCR6, GIMAP7, LTA, SEPT9, UBAC2, UXS1) and four consistently hypomethylated genes (ADARB1, NFIC, NR1H3, ST3GAL3) in HSTL[10].
    • Hypermethylated genes (LTA, CD5, CXCR6, GIMAP7, BCL11B and SEPT9) are relevant to the pathobiology of T-cell leukemias/lymphomas, and are hypermethylated at active promoter sites mainly around transcription start sites[10].
      • Hypermethylation of CpGs around transcription start sites shows a lack of protein expression of CD5 and CXCR6 by immunohistochemistry in HSTL, compared to normal lymphocytes[10].
        • Note: This finding is not specific to HSTL and can be seen in other T-cell lymphomas[10]

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

Put your text here and fill in the table (Instructions: Can include references in the table.)

Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
EXAMPLE: BRAF and MAP2K1; Activating mutations EXAMPLE: MAPK signaling EXAMPLE: Increased cell growth and proliferation
EXAMPLE: CDKN2A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE: Cell cycle regulation EXAMPLE: Unregulated cell division
EXAMPLE:  KMT2C and ARID1A; Inactivating mutations EXAMPLE:  Histone modification, chromatin remodeling EXAMPLE:  Abnormal gene expression program
editv4:Genes and Main Pathways Involved
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.
  • HSTL (both γδ and αβ phenotypes) show a similar molecular blueprint[5]
    • Clustering of expression profiles of HSTL samples show separate clustering compared to the other T-cell lymphomas irrespective of their αβ or γδ lineage[5]
    • Overexpression of genes encoding NK-cell–associated molecules (KIRs, KLR, CD244, and NCAM1), oncogenes (FOS, VAV3, MAF, and BRAF), cell adhesion (eg, VCAM1, CD11d, and ICAM1), tsignal transduction (eg, SPRY2, RHOB, MAP4K3, and SPRY1), the sonic hedgehog pathway (eg, GLI3, PRKAR2B, PRKACB, and PRKAR1A), the WNT pathway (eg, FRZB, TCF7L2, BAMBI, TLE1, CTNNB1, APC, and FZD5), and S1PR5, and the tyrosine kinase SYK[5]
    • AIM1 (absent in melanoma 1) was among the most down-expressed genes[5]
      • Genes showing significant under expression in HSTL includes those associated with cytotoxicity (eg, Granulysin, Granzyme H, Granzyme K, and Granzyme B), cytokines (eg, LTA, TNF, and IFNG), and CD5[5]

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

Clinical, morphologic, and immunophenotypic features are sufficient for diagnosis in most cases. Cytogenetic testing could be used to support the diagnosis

  • Karyotype may show trisomy 8, if present
  • FISH targeted isochromosome 7q and trisomy 8
  • Next generation sequencing to support mutations seen in HSTL including STAT3, STAT5B, PI3KCD, SETD2, INO80, TET3, and STAT5B[4]
    • Presence of RHOA mutation, can potentially exclude HSTL from the differential diagnosis[4]
