Genomic Landscape of Cutaneous Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma

Cutaneous diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCL) are aggressive lymphomas with a poor prognosis. To elucidate their genetic bases, we performed whole exome capture and massively parallel sequencing on 19 tumor samples of diffuse large B cell lymphoma, leg type (DLBCL-LT) and 6 samples of secondary cutaneous diffuse large B cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL-NOS). Tumor specimens and their associated sequencing data were from multiple institutions, including Northwestern University (Chicago, IL), Massachusetts General Hospital (Boston, MA), and Medical University of Graz (Graz, Austria).
