Study of T Specific Immune Response Against Delta-CD20 Peptide in Hematological Malignancies B

Terminated
Conditions
Hematological Malignancies B
Registration Number
NCT02844491
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon
Brief Summary

Cancer-specific splice variants gain significant interest as they generate neo-antigens, that could be targeted by immune cells. CD20, a membrane antigen broadly expressed in mature B cell lymphomas, is subject to an alternative splicing named Delta-CD20 leading to loss of membrane expression of the spliced isoform.

The investigators group would now determine if it's possible, in patients with lymphoproliferative B, to detect the presence of a specific memory response to delta-CD20 peptides.

If this memory response exists, it will confirm the interest of this antigen as a target for tumor immunotherapy.
