Patients who had early failure to R-CHOP tended to have higher expression of these genes: SMARCA4 (p=0.010), SETD1B (p=0.018), SETD2 (p=0.024), EP300 (p=0.012), MLL3 (p=0.049), INO80 (p=0.001), CHD8 (p=0.007), NCOR1 (p=0.020), ARID1B (p=0.034), and SETD5 (p=0.007). Compared to the patients who were in remission after R-CHOP therapy, these patients had significantly higher expression of HIST1H1E (p=0.007).
