Abstract

This meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of genetic mutations, particularly in the NOTCH2 and TNFAIP3 genes, on the prognostic outcomes of Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) patients. Databases, including PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library, were explored up to October 2023. A total of 11 studies encompassing 2,314 records were included. Outcome measures were 5-year overall survival rates (OSR), progression-free survival rates (PFSR), and tumor progression rates (TPR). NOTCH2 and TNFAIP3 mutations were prominently identified across studies. In splenic MZL (SMZL) patients with NOTCH2 mutations, there was a significant decrease in the 5-year OSR (SMD: -11.11, 95% CI: -13.39 to -8.84, P < 0.01) and PFSR (SMD: -23.49, 95% CI: -28.85 to -18.14, P < 0.01). Similarly, TNFAIP3 mutations in SMZL patients demonstrated diminished 5-year OSR (SMD: -14.78, 95% CI: -18.01 to -11.56, P < 0.01) and PFSR (SMD: -21.06, 95% CI: -27.13 to -14.98, P < 0.01). For ocular adnexal MZL (OA-MZL) patients with NOTCH2 mutations, the 5-year OSR significantly declined (SMD: -23.40, 95% CI: -28.87 to -17.93, P < 0.01). Genetic mutations, notably in NOTCH2 and TNFAIP3 genes, have discernable negative implications on the prognosis of MZL patients. Recognizing these genetic markers can guide more personalized therapeutic interventions and inform clinical prognosis.
