Observational study of relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma presenting as indolent lymphoma
Official title: Multicenter Retrospective Observational Study of Relapsed Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Presenting as Indolent Lymphoma
Run by Azienda USL Reggio Emilia - IRCCS · NCT06822829 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study looks at how diffuse large B-cell lymphoma can come back as a slower-growing type of lymphoma to see what signs and treatments might help patients better.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with a previous diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and documented relapses as indolent lymphoma.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without a prior diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma or those who do not have documented relapses as indolent lymphoma may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to assess the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that relapses as indolent lymphoma. It focuses on identifying diagnostic and imaging features associated with such relapses and evaluating the response to selected therapies. The study will analyze data from patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2020, gathering clinical and laboratory information related to both the initial diagnosis and the relapse. The goal is to better understand this rare phenomenon and improve treatment strategies.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the characteristics and treatment of relapsed DLBCL presenting as indolent lymphoma, potentially leading to improved patient outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: While there is limited literature on this specific phenomenon, the study aims to fill a gap in knowledge, suggesting that similar studies have not extensively explored this area.
