Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study will evaluate IgNGS at different time points in newly diagnosed DLBCL patients homogeneously treated (RCHOP) to address its correlation with conventional techniques (i.e., positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging (PET/CT) and outcome.

Inclusion Criteria: patients diagnosed with de novo DLBCL, all ages, treated with R-CHOP. Patients with DLBCL not otherwise specified (NOS) according to World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues (WHO) 2016 would be included. In addition, those with "high-grade B cell lymphoma (including both NOS and those with Myc and bcl2 and/or bcl6 alterations) will be also included. Exclusion Criteria: * Primary mediastinal DLBCL. * Transformed DLBCL * Patients HIV+ * Central Nervous System (CNS) DLBCL * All other DLBCL not included under "NOS" classification, according to WHO 2016 (except those specifically indicated in "inclusion criteria").
