Overview

CXCR4 is one of a number of genes affected by aberrant somatic hypermutation in B-cell lymphomas, which complicates the interpretation of mutations at this locus. No notable hot spots have been described in this gene in the context of the cancers listed below. The mutation pattern in DLBCL implies the preferential accumulation of inactivating mutations.

Mutations in this gene were first described in DLBCL in 2012¹ in FL in 2021² and in BL in 2019.³

Relevance tier by entity

Entity	Tier	Description
	1	high-confidence MZL gene
	1	aSHM target and high-confidence DLBCL gene¹
	2	aSHM target; Although recurrent, the relevance of mutations in FL is tenuous⁴
	2	aSHM target; Although recurrent, the relevance of mutations in BL is tenuous³
