Definition
A recently recognized variant of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) that lacks somatic hypermutations of the Immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) genes, implying pregerminal center B-cell origin. Microarray gene expression profiling studies have demonstrated the expression of ZAP-70 gene (Syk family tyrosine kinase) in this subset of CLL/CLL. Patients with this variant of CLL/SLL have an unfavorable prognosis compared to those with somatic hypermutations of the IGH genes, with a median survival of approximately 6-8 years.

Names
CancerIndex is a research and information platform. It does not diagnose and does not recommend treatment.
Key figures
Each figure carries its unit, period and source; ranks link to "Why this rank?".
No registry-level ancestor: burden figures are published for the mutually exclusive top-level site groups only, and this entity does not descend from one. Global figures (IARC / GLOBOCAN) stay under license review and SEER awaits credentials.
