A National Study for Blood Based Response Monitoring of B-cell Lymphoma Patients

Overview

Observational prospective study. Patients with DLBCL and HGBCL will be enrolled in the study to collect samples for developing a blood based assay allowing biomarker driven treatment in the future.

The rationale of this study is that, due to the lack of successful salvage options, first-line treatment outcome needs to be improved. To make this possible, a crucial condition is optimal identification of patients that will not be cured on R-CHOP. The aim of this protocol is to develop new tools to monitor treatment response and disease outcome. Molecular monitoring of treatment response through liquid biopsies (LB) is such a promising new tool. The primary objective is to collect liquid biopsy samples of patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL/HGBCL to develop a blood based assay allowing biomarker driven treatment in the future. The secondary objectives are to collect clinical data and pre-treatment tissue samples (for determining molecular profiles) to allow for correlation to the blood based assay. This study is designed for patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL and HGBCL ≥ 18 yr.
