%X The variability in disease outcome for indolent non-Hodgkin lymphomas (iNHL) and mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL) could be related to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes that affect immune and inflammatory response. We investigated SNPs that could have a prognostic role for patients receiving bendamustine and rituximab (BR). All samples were genotyped for the IL-2 (rs2069762), IL-10 (rs1800890, rs10494879), VEGFA (rs3025039), IL-8 (rs4073), CFH (rs1065489) and MTHFR (rs1801131) SNPs by allelic discrimination assays using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays. We report a long-term follow-up analysis of 79 iNHL and MCL patients that received BR. Overall response rate was 97.5% (CR rate 70.9%). After a median follow-up of 63 months, median PFS and OS were not reached. We report a significant association between SNP in IL-2 (rs2069762) and reduced PFS and OS (p<.0001). We suggest a role for cytokine SNPs in disease outcome, while SNPs seem not related to long-term toxicity or secondary malignancies.
