Omic Technologies Applied to the Study of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma and High-grade B-cell Lymphoma for the Discovery of Diagnostic and Prognosis Biomarkers

The goal of this observational study is to determine the plasma metabolomic profile in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and high-grade B lymphomas patients before, during and after treatment by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOFMS)

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The main question it aims to answer is the correlation between the plasma metabolomic profile of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and high-grade B lymphomas patients before and after treatment determined by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOFMS) and analysed with MetaboAnalyst web platform to identify specific over- or under-expressed markers.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in plasma concentration as measured by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOFMS)
Time Frame: 12 months
For metabolomic analysis, different portions of the blood (plasma and lymphocytes) will be subjected to metabolite extraction by the extraction method defined by Glasgow Polyomics. With protein precipitation, 200 microliters (uL) of the fluid with the metabolites is transferred to a new microtube and must be maintained at -80 °C until the time of metabolomic analysis.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression-Free-Survival (PFS) related to the plasma metabolomic profile
Time Frame: 12 months
Progression-Free-Survival calculates the time from patient treatment to disease recurrence or death due to disease progression related to the metabolomic profile during the time of observation
12 months
Prognostic factors as measured by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI)
Time Frame: 12 months
The NCCN-IPI is a robust and useful tool to stratify prognostically relevant subgroups of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma and High-grade B-cell Lymphoma patients in the current era of rituximab-based therapy
12 months
Correlation between change in plasma metabolomic profile and treatment response as measured by Lugano criteria by PET-CT (positron emission tomography / computer tomography) or CT (computer tomography) scan
Time Frame: 12 months
A correlation between change in plasma metabolomic profile and treatment response as measured by Lugano criteria by PET-CT or CT scan will be analysed using the Pearson's and Spearman's coefficients. The Lugano classification is used for assessment, staging and response of Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Criteria responses range from complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD), with progressive disease (PD) indicating worse response to treatment.
