AIM: Peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is a heterogeneous disease that can be classified into the PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3 subtypes.

METHODS: In this study, we compared the clinicopathological features of PTCL-NOS in a Japanese cohort, classified using an IHC algorithm.

RESULTS: One hundred patients with PTCL-NOS were categorized as having PTCL-TBX21 (n = 55), PTCL-GATA3 (n = 24), or PTCL-unclassified (n = 21). When comparing PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3, PTCL-TBX21 showed significantly lower CD4 positivity (p = 0.047), lower counts of high endothelial venules (p = 0.032), and a tendency for a better response to initial treatment (p = 0.088). Gene expression analysis using the nCounter system showed higher expression of tumor immunity-related genes, such as PD-L1, LAG3, and IDO1, in PTCL-TBX21 than in PTCL-GATA3. PTCL-GATA3 had significantly worse overall survival (OS) than those with PTCL-TBX21 (p = 0.047), although a similar tendency was observed for progression-free survival (PFS) (p = 0.064). PTCL-GATA3 was a prognostic factor for OS in univariate analysis (HR 2.02; 95% CI, 1.09-3.77; p = 0.027), although multivariate analysis did not show significance (HR 2.07; 95% CI, 0.93-4.61; p = 0.074). In the PFS analysis, PTCL-GATA3 was an independent prognostic factor by univariate analysis (HR 1.96; 95% CI, 1.08-3.56; p = 0.027) and multivariate analysis (HR 2.34; 95% CI, 1.07-5.11; p = 0.032).

CONCLUSION: The classification of PTCL-NOS into PTCL-TBX21 and PTCL-GATA3 is useful for predicting the prognosis of Japanese patients and stratifying the administration of tumor immune checkpoint inhibitors in clinical practice.
