Abstract

While the genomic and immune microenvironmental landscape of follicular lymphoma (FL) has been extensively investigated, little is known regarding potential biological differences between stage I and stage III/IV disease. Using next generation sequencing (NGS) and immunohistochemistry, 82 FL nodal stage I cases were analysed and compared to 139 FL stage III/IV nodal cases. Many similarities in mutations, chromosomal copy number aberrations (CNAs) and microenvironmental cell populations were detected. However, there were also significant differences in microenvironmental and genomic features. CD8+ T-cells (p=0.02) and STAT6 mutations (FDR
