Recurrent chromosomal imbalances are characteristic of CHL and contribute to its pathogenesis. Frequent gains include 2p (''REL''), 9p24.1 (''JAK2'', ''CD274/PDL1'', ''PDCD1LG2/PDL2''), and 17q21 (''MAP3K14''), while recurrent losses include 6q23–q24 (''TNFAIP3''). These alterations support activation of NF-κB and JAK/STAT pathways, as well as immune evasion.
