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

Terminated
Conditions
Hematological Malignancies B
Interventions
Other: additional biological samples
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.

Cohort Aadditional biological samplesIn Cohort A, patients will be included either in the group "sustainable response"or in the "short / refractory response" group. - "sustainable response" group : patient with NHL diffuse large B cells, and persistent complete response for at least 6 months after first-line treatment with Rituximab OR patient with follicular NHL, mantle NHL, NHL marginal zone or Waldenstrom's disease in complete response or partial stable response for at least 1 year after first line treatment with Rituximab "short / refractory response" group : patient with NHL diffuse large B cells, refractory or relapsed in less than 6 months after at least one line of treatment with Rituximab OR patient with follicular NHL, mantle NHL, NHL marginal zone or Waldenstrom's disease refractory or relapsed / progression within less than 1 year after at least one line of treatment with Rituximab
Cohort Badditional biological samplesFor Cohort B patients will be included either in the group "B hematologic therapeutic abstention" or in the group "any blood disease not treated with anti-CD20 antibodies." "B hematologic therapeutic abstention" group : patient with hematological malignancy whatever the initial expansion stage "any blood disease not treated with anti-CD20 antibodies" group : patient with follicular NHL, mantle NHL, NHL marginal zone or Waldenstorm disease without treatment criteria at diagnosis and with stable disease for at least 6 months
