Trial summary

Lymphoma is a prevalent lymphoid malignancy globally and in Taiwan. Large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is the most common subtype of aggressive B-cell lymphoma. LBCL's aggressive nature manifests through extranodal involvement, severe symptoms, and relative refractoriness to therapies, leading to a 5-year overall survival… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Early Assessment of Aggressive B-Cell Lymphoma Treatment Response and Prediction of Recurrence Using Phased Variant Analysis With Next-Generation Sequencing

Lymphoma is a prevalent lymphoid malignancy globally and in Taiwan. Large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is the most common subtype of aggressive B-cell lymphoma. LBCL's aggressive nature manifests through extranodal involvement, severe symptoms, and relative refractoriness to therapies, leading to a 5-year overall survival rate of 60-70% across developed countries and poorer outcomes in high-risk patients with primary refractory disease. Chemoimmunotherapy remains the primary treatment for LBCL, requiring comprehensive assessment through clinical and imaging examinations, biomarkers, and molecular testing. Currently, computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans are the standard modalities for treatment response evaluation, though their radioactive nature calls for the development of safer alternatives. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis has emerged as a promising field, providing insights into tumor molecular characteristics, clinical status, and treatment response by analyzing DNA fragments released from tumor cells into the bloodstream. Dynamic monitoring of ctDNA during treatment can effectively gauge therapeutic efficacy-decreasing ctDNA concentrations suggest successful treatment, while increasing levels may indicate treatment failure or tumor recurrence. The detection of ctDNA has been much improved through advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, particularly taking advantage of analyzing phased variants, consecutive gene mutations on the same chromosome, enhances the sensitivity and specificity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lymphoma and Hodgkin Lymphoma, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tai-Chung Huang, Ph.D (+886-972-651392, tch01@ntu.edu.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between ctDNA analyzed by phased variant and early outcome of lymphoma (time frame: From the date of enrollment, up to 24 months or date of death from any cause.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jun 2025.
