Low Grade Lymphoma

Phase 4
Conditions
Indolent Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Interventions
Biological: Vaccin GenHevac B Pasteur
Registration Number
NCT01698866
Lead Sponsor
Central Hospital, Nancy, France
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the seroconversion rate and the cellular immune response after vaccination against hepatitis B virus in patients with lymphoproliferative syndrome like chronic lymphocytic leukemia stade A and follicular lymphoma without of treatment criteria.

Detailed Description

Rituximab is a human-mouse chimeric monoclonal antibody that targets the B-cell CD20. It is an indispensible drug for the treatment of B-cell lymphoproliferative syndrome which induced immunosuppression. So, the infectious complications increase. Reactivation of hepatitis B virus is one such complication that can lead in asymptomatic hepatitis to death. Prevention of hepatitis B reactivation is recommended like using nucleoside analog for patients with chronic hepatitis B or occult hepatitis and vaccination against virus for seronegative patients. The published data about efficacy of hepatitis b vaccination in onco-haematology are rare. therefore, we carried out a prospective study to assess efficacy of hepatitis B vaccination in patients with lymphoproliferative disorder.
