Brief Summary
The aim of the DIRECT Study is to establish a robust pipeline to identify those patients with high-grade B cell lymphoma most suitable for novel agent clinical trials based upon genomic subtype and an integrated response evaluation determined early in first-line therapy.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Establish a robust molecular monitoring pipeline.
3-5 years
Successful identification of trackable mutations in collected samples. Feasibility will be met if more than 75% of the samples yield trackable mutations across the whole study.
3-5 years
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Assess the utility of serial ctDNA assessment as a predicator of clinical outcome in high-grade B cell lymphoma.
5 years
Assess the utility of integrated data from clinical risk factors (IPI), up-front genotype, serial ctDNA response and radiological assessment (CT or PET-CT).
3-5 years
When the pipeline is optimised can these 4 parameters be available within 6 weeks, i.e. by completion of Cycle 2.
3-5 years
Other Outcomes (2)
Identification of the de novo somatic variants in high-grade B cell lymphoma from collected ctDNA and tissue samples.
3-5 years
Assess the utility of ctDNA to track clonal evolution in patients undergoing treatment for high-grade B cell lymphoma.
3-5 years
Interventions
Patients will take their normal standard of care treatment for their lymphoma, as per agreed with the patient's doctor. Blood samples will be collected at Baseline, during the first 3 cycles of Treatment, at End of Treatment, at 6- and 12-months after End of Treatment and at relapse/progression if applicable. Surplus Tissue biopsy will be collected at Baseline and at relapse/progression if applicable. In rare cases research-specific tissue biopsy may be collected if appropriate.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) or closely related high-grade B cell lymphomas including, but not limited to: * DLBCL NOS * Transformed follicular lymphoma * High grade B cell lymphoma with rearrangement of BCL2/BCL6 and MYC * Plasmablastic lymphoma * Primary Mediastinal Large Cell lymphoma * Burkitt lymphoma * Primary Central Nervous System lymphoma * High grade B cell lymphoma NOS Undergoing Standard of Care treatment for their lymphoma.
You may not qualify if:
- Unable to receive immunochemotherapy as first-line therapy due to co-morbidity or personal choice.
- Patients who have already started high dose steroids as a treatment for their lymphoma.
- Known diagnosis of infectious blood-borne virus e.g. Hep B, Hep C or HIV.
