ABSTRACT
Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) is the most common subtype of ocular lymphomas. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and EMZL with large-cell transformation present diagnostic challenges. Radiotherapy is the standard treatment for ocular lymphomas, but complications and relapse are common. Diagnostic utility in challenging cases, as well as treatment options using immune checkpoint inhibitors, are unclear in ocular lymphomas. We herein investigated the PD-1, PD-L1, and IDO1 staining patterns in 20 cases of ocular lymphomas, including EMZL (n=14), EMZL with increased large cells (n=2), and DLBCL (n=4). PD-1, PD-L1, and IDO1 staining was not detected in lymphoma cells in any cases but was observed within the tumor microenvironment in all cases. Positivity for PD-1, PD-L1, and IDO1 in inflammatory cells was seen either intratumorally or peritumorally. In all 6 cases with significantly more large B cells, the density of PD-1, PD-L1, and IDO1 expression in the tumor microenvironment was higher than that of the remaining 14 cases without large B cells (P-value<0.0001), whereas other clinicopathologic features showed no statistical correlation. Increased expression of PD-1, PD-L1, and IDO1 in the inflammatory milieu in cases with large cells may provide diagnostic utility in small biopsies as well as therapeutic potential.
