  • Publication number: 20080268453
    Abstract: A method for determining the prognosis of a CD5+DLBCL patient and a CD5-DLBCL patient is provided. It is determined that, in the chromosomal DNA from a patient with lymphoma, (1) the prognosis of the CD5+DLBCL patient with amplification of 13q21.1-q31.3 region is poor; (2) the prognosis of the CD5+DLBCL patient with deletion of 1p36.21-p36.13 region is poor; and (3) the prognosis of the CD5-DLBCL patient with amplification of 5p15.33-p14.2 region is good.
