The precise mechanism of rituximab (R) plus
CHOP (R-CHOP) therapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
(DLBCL) is not fully elucidated: Besides overcoming bcl-
2 mediated chemoresistance, antibody-dependent cellular
cytotoxicity (ADCC), which is activated by effector
cells via IgG fragment C receptors (FcR), was also
proposed as a mechanism of Rituximab. The current study
evaluated the impact of FcR polymorphism on the response
to R-CHOP therapy for DLBCL with the basis that FcR
polymorphism can affect R s affinity for ADCC effector
cells. The FcyRIIIa and FcyRIIIa
gene polymorphisms were determined in DLBCL patients
receiving R-CHOP (n=113) comparing to CHOP therapy
(n=85). The FcyRIIIa valine (V) allele was
significantly correlated with higher complete response
rate to R-CHOP compared to phenylalalnine (F) allele
(88% in V/V versus 79% in V/F versus 50% in F/F,
p=0.002), while no difference was found between FcyRIIIa
polymorphism. In addition, V/V allele was associated
with faster achievement of response than other alleles.
The impact of FcyRIIIa gene polymorphism on response
rate was not noted in CHOP group. In terms of overall or
event-free survival, no difference was found according
to FcyRIIIa or FcyRIIIa alleles. The FcyRIIIa
SNP is predictive of response to R-CHOP, but does not
correlate with survival in DLBCL patients.
