Popis: | Adult T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) is a rare and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that differs from pediatric T-LBL and has a worse prognosis. Due to its rarity, little is known about the genetic and molecular characteristics, optimal treatment modalities, and prognostic factors of adult T-LBL. Therefore, we summarized the existing studies to comprehensively discuss the above issues in this review. Genetic mutations of NOTCH1/FBXW7, PTEN, RAS, and KMT2D, together with abnormal activation of signaling pathways, such as the JAK-STAT signaling pathway were described. We also discussed the therapeutic modalities. Once diagnosed, adult T-LBL patients should receive intensive or pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia regimen and central nervous system prophylaxis as soon as possible, and cranial radiation-free protocols are appropriate. Mediastinal radiotherapy improves clinical outcomes, but adverse events are of concern. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may be considered for adult T-LBL patients with high-risk factors or those with relapsed/refractory disease. Besides, several novel prognostic models have been constructed, such as the 5-miRNAs-based classifier, 11-gene-based classifier, and 4-CpG-based classifier, which have presented significant prognostic value in adult T-LBL. |
