Associated Genetic Biomarkers

Overview

NCI Definition: A lymphoma that arises from the mediastinum. Representative examples include mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma. [1]

Mediastinal lymphomas most frequently harbor alterations in SOCS1, TNFAIP3, XPO1, CIITA, and STAT6 [2].

Most Commonly Altered Genes in Mediastinal Lymphoma

SOCS1fs, XPO1 Mutation, XPO1 E571K, TNFAIP3fs, and STAT6 Mutation are the most common alterations in mediastinal lymphoma [2].
