Study summary

Observation of a cohort of 400 patients with different types of lymphomas.

Read the detailed description

A database on 400 patients diagnosed with lymphomas was built up over 20 years at Nîmes University Hospital. Biopsies were made on these tumours and all the samples were frozen.

Considering the heterogeneous nature of lymphomas, randomized clinical trials based on very precise criteria for the inclusion or non-inclusion of patients are the gold standard for studying the various sub-types of lymphomas by concentrating on homogeneous populations for which a limited number of parameters are analyzed simultaneously. However, due to the complexity of their medical situation, many patients may be excluded form these trials, thus making it difficult to obtain reliable results.

The analysis of a non-selected cohort has two main advantages: (1) to better understand the diversity of patients with lymphomas for which the recommendations are constantly evolving and (2) to analyze how, exactly, these are managed by integrating points which are currently poorly evaluated such as comorbidities and accessibility to treatment.

The aim of the study is to describe how these patients are managed and to demonstrate that not all patients are able to benefit from the official management recommendations applicable to their pathology.

Study population

The population consists of patients with lymphomas (Malignant Non-Hodgkinien and Hodgkin Lymphomas) diagnosed at Nîmes University Hospital from 1999 onwards and for whom the frozen biological samples are available. Since 2005, all patients have been registered in the Tumototek software program. Those diagnosed before this date can be found in the hospital's anatomopathological laboratory registers.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients over the age of 15 years and 3 months, diagnosed with lymphoma at Nîmes University Hospital as from 1999 onwards and for whom diagnostic tumor material is available.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients aged 18 or over who have expressed their desire not to take part in the study.
  • Patients under the age of 18 whose legal representatives have expressed their desire for the child not to take part in the study.
  • Patients under legal guardianship.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall survival rate among patients with Hodgkin Lymphomas

    The number of months during which the patient has survived since inclusion will be noted. If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

  2. Overall survival rate among patients with Mantle-cell Lymphomas

    The number of months during which the patient has survived since inclusion will be noted.If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

  3. Overall survival rate among patients with Primitive Cerebral Lymphomas

    The number of months during which the patient has survived since inclusion will be noted. If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

  4. Overall survival rate among patients with Follicular Lymphomas

    The number of months during which the patient has survived since inclusion will be noted. If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

  5. Overall survival rate among patients with Marginal Zone Lymphomas

    The number of months during which the patient has survived since inclusion will be noted. If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

  6. Overall survival rate among patients with Waldenström's Disease

    If the patient has died, the date of death recorded in the hospital file or from the INSERM CépiDC register will be noted.

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion
