Understanding lymphoma biology to improve treatment
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at the biology of certain lymphomas to better understand why some people respond well to treatment and others don't. It involves giving a small additional blood or tissue sample to help researchers find genetic clues that could improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or a similar type of large B-cell lymphoma.
- You are about to start standard first-line therapy (such as R-CHOP or a similar treatment) for your lymphoma.
- You have not already started this treatment.
- You are 18 years or older and are able to give your own consent.
- You do not have an active HIV infection.
- You do not have another active cancer (except for a common skin cancer called basal cell carcinoma).

This study looks at how different genetic types of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) respond to treatment in real-world settings. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best for your specific subtype.
This trial tests if a new drug combination works better than the standard treatment for people with a specific, aggressive form of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that shows high levels of two proteins, MYC and BCL2. The study aims to improve outcomes by using genetic information to guide treatment choices.
This study looks at how certain blood tests (like CRP, albumin, and their ratios) might help predict how well treatment works for newly diagnosed DLBCL. If you are getting R-CHOP, this trial could help doctors better understand your response to therapy.
This study looks at whether blood tests for tumor DNA (cfDNA) can help guide treatment decisions for people with newly diagnosed DLBCL. It focuses on patients who achieve complete remission after 6 rounds of R-CHOP chemotherapy.
This trial studies whether using a blood test (ctDNA) can help guide treatment decisions for people with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. It tests standard chemotherapy regimens (R-CHOP or R-pola-CHP) and aims to improve outcomes by monitoring tumor DNA in the blood.
This study looks for tumor “signatures” (including tiny RNA molecules, or miRNA) to predict outcomes in people with relapsed or resistant diffuse large B‑cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Your tissue samples help researchers see which patients may benefit from standard chemotherapy plus antibody treatment.
