ABSTRACT
Diagnosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is challenging, and although brain biopsy remains the gold standard, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) constitutes a less invasive source of lymphomatous biomarkers. In a retrospective cohort of 54 PCNSL cases tested at diagnosis or relapse, we evaluated the contribution of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) gene clonality and MYD88 L265P detection on both CSF cell pellets and supernatants, in comparison with cytology, flow cytometry, interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-6 quantification. Clonality assessment included a new assay to detect partial IGH-DJ rearrangements. Clonal IGH rearrangements and/or MYD88 L265P mutation were detected in 27 (50%) cell pellets and 24 (44%) supernatant cell-free (cf) DNA. Combining analyses on both compartments, 36 (66%) cases had at least one detectable molecular marker, present only in cfDNA for 9 (16%) of them. While cytology and flow cytometry were positive in only 7 (13.0%) and 9 (17.3%) cases respectively, high IL-10 levels were observed in 36 (66.7%) cases. Overall, taking into account molecular and cytokine results, 46/54 (85%) cases had at least one lymphomatous biomarker detectable in the CSF. These results show that this combination of biomarkers evaluated on both cell pellet and supernatant CSF fractions improves significantly the biological diagnosis of PCNSL.
