Predicting DLBCL treatment response with ctDNA and PET scans
Treatments studied
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial uses a blood test (ctDNA) and PET scans to predict how well standard first-line treatment works for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). It aims to find out if these tests can guide better care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You must have a newly diagnosed, untreated type of DLBCL that is CD20-positive.
- You must have at least one tumor that can be measured by scans (like CT or MRI).
- Your overall health should be good enough to allow you to be active and expect to live more than a year.
- Your blood counts, liver, kidney, lung, and heart function must be within safe limits.
- You must agree to use effective birth control during and for 120 days after treatment if you can become pregnant or get someone pregnant.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a combination of targeted antibody drugs (polatuzumab vedotin and rituximab) plus two chemo drugs (gemcitabine and oxaliplatin) for people with DLBCL whose cancer returned after their first treatment and who cannot have a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this combination works better as a second-line treatment.
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 Phase 2 study tests a treatment approach guided by PET scans, plus non-invasive monitoring, for adults with limited-stage diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (a type of lymphoma). It may help by tailoring therapy based on scan and other follow-up information, aiming for better outcomes with fewer invasive steps.
This trial tests whether adding a targeted drug (X) to the standard Pola-R-CHP regimen works better for people with DLBCL whose cancer didn't respond well after the first cycle of chemo. It compares the standard treatment to a combination with an extra drug, aiming to improve outcomes for those who need it most.
This trial tests a combination of two targeted therapies, polatuzumab vedotin and glofitamab, for people with DLBCL that either came back within 12 months of R-CHOP or never went away. The goal is to see if this two-drug approach can help when standard chemotherapy has not worked well.
This trial is testing a new combination of drugs for people with a high-risk type of lymphoma called DLBCL who have not been treated before. It adds loncastuximab and roflumilast to the standard R-CHOP therapy to see if it works better at fighting the cancer.
