Key information

About this study

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.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall survival rate among patients with Hodgkin Lymphomas

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

    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.

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

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

    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.

  3. Overall survival rate among patients with Primitive Cerebral Lymphomas

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

    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.

  4. Overall survival rate among patients with Follicular Lymphomas

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

    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.

  5. Overall survival rate among patients with Marginal Zone Lymphomas

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

    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.

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

    Time frame: 2 years after inclusion

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