Fig 2: TCR signalling in nodal TFH derived lymphomas. Several genes associated with the TCR
signalling are mutated in AITL and TFH-like PTCL-NOS. Pathways were reconstructed using the Ingenuity
pathway analysis (IPA) tools and the KEGG database, and were subsequently used to group define mutant
variants in survival and gene set enrichment analysis.
Fig 4: Enriched gene signatures in patients with or without mutations in TCR-related signalling genes.
Gene sets enriched in patients with mutated or non-mutated TCR-related signalling (irrespective of RHOA status)
genes indicate that pathway mutants have more proliferative activity, and express genes associated with TCR
activation. Genes tested in the enrichment analysis were selected from signatures relevant in T and B cell
differentiation and activation.

Conclusions
• Interim analysis of 58 patients led to termination of the study because
conditional power analysis showed low probability to confirm hypothesis
• 38 % of pts could not proceed to auto- or alloSCT as per protocol
• AutoSCT gave results comparable to other studies
• GvL-effect of alloSCT counterbalanced by high TRM
• No significant difference between treatment arms (low patient numbers!)
• Final analysis on 104 patients expected 2017
