About this study

Official title: Detection of Somatic Mutations on Cell-free Circulating DNA in Potentially Aggressive Cutaneous Lymphomas

To evaluate the possibility of detecting cell-free circulating tumoral DNA in potentially aggressive primary cutaneous lymphomas, the investigator opted to search a representative tumor sample mutation in the blood of these patients, by digital PCR. Patients with mycosis fungoides, primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma helper follicular phenotype and primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg-type will be included and 4 blood samples will be collected during 12 months.

Read the detailed description

Primary cutaneous lymphomas represent the second extra nodal localization of lymphomas, and are constituted by T-cell and B-cell phenotype lymphomas. Mycosis fungoides, a T-cell epidermotropic lymphoma, is the most frequent. Its clinical behavior is usually indolent but some patients have an aggressive evolution. Among B-cell cutaneous lymphomas, primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLBCL-LT) is the most aggressive. Cytogenetic and molecular studies on these tumours led to a genetic characterization of these entities. Therefore, there is not any biologic marker that can help monitoring these lymphomas. In solid tumors, mutations exhibited by the tumour tissue has been detected in plasma of patients, assessing the possibility to detect cell-free circulating tumoral DNA in a blood sample, with correlations with clinical characteristics and metastatic outcome. The concept of liquid biopsies, allowing the detection of tumour mutation in plasma has been validated in nodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. That's why the purpose is to evaluate the possibility to detect cell-free circulating tumoral DNA in primary cutaneous lymphomas, using a highly sensitive method (digital PCR), combined with a next generation sequencing panel of the tumour sample.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of patients who have circulating free tumor DNA (detected by Digital polymerase chain reaction) with the mutation identified on biopsy

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Proportion of patients who have circulating free tumor DNA (detected by Digital polymerase chain reaction) with the mutation identified on biopsy

    Measured: Week 12

  3. Proportion of patients who have circulating free tumor DNA (detected by Digital polymerase chain reaction) with the mutation identified on biopsy

    Measured: Week 24

  4. Proportion of patients who have circulating free tumor DNA (detected by Digital polymerase chain reaction) with the mutation identified on biopsy

    Measured: Week 36

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Amount of circulating tumor DNA (number of copies / µl)

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Amount of free circulating DNA (number of copies / µl)

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Number of patient with presence or absence of blood lymphocyte clone identical to the tumor clone

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Number of patient with presence or absence of blood lymphocyte clone identical to the tumor clone

    Measured: Week 12

  5. Number of patient with presence or absence of blood lymphocyte clone identical to the tumor clone

    Measured: Week 24

  6. Number of patient with presence or absence of blood lymphocyte clone identical to the tumor clone

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mycosis Fungoides and Lymphoma, Large B-cell, Diffuse, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux at 1 site in France.

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 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2022. 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 France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients who have circulating free tumor DNA (detected by Digital polymerase chain reaction) with the mutation identified on biopsy (time frame: Day 1). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 May 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 29 Oct 2026.
