About this trial
The overarching goals of this study are to measure levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in patients with early stage diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), to assess the change in ctDNA during treatment in order to prospectively identify markers of treatment failure, and to use ctDNA as a future tool for response adapted therapy.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Previously untreated limited stage non bulky DLBCL; defined as limited stage by routine staging criteria in lymphoma involving FDG-PET and bone marrow biopsies (the Lugano criteria)[21]
Patients with grade 3B follicular lymphoma and transformed indolent lymphoma are included
Ages ≥ 18
Measurable disease, assessable by radiographic examination with FDG-PET showing involvement
Disqualifiers
Pregnancy, positive serum HCG within 28 days of enrollment, or breast-feeding
Bulky disease greater than 10 cm in any dimension

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Correlation between fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and MRD, as measured by circulating tumor plasma DNA (ctDNA) in patients with early stage diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Secondary outcomes
PET CR rate
Change in minimal residual disease (MRD) from baseline to time of re-staging PET
Re-staging Deauville score of 1, 2, or 3 (negative PET scan)
Following 3 cycles of R-CHOP, if PET scan demonstrates complete response, defined by Deauville score of 1, 2, or 3 (negative PET scan), radiation therapy will not be required moving forward
