Real-time Monitoring of Concentration and Size Variations of Circulating Plasma Free DNA to Predict Early Response to Immunotherapies in Patients With Different Types of Cancer.

Immunotherapy, which can be represented by the immune checkpoint blockade, is a milestone in the progress of the ongoing struggle against cancer. However, the emergence of unexpected tumor response patterns, such as pseudo-progression or hyper-progression, might complicate the management of patients receiving these immune checkpoint inhibitors. A reliable standardized biomarker that can be used in clinical practice for predicting response to treatment, monitoring tumor evolution and evaluating treatment efficacy has not yet been established. The general aim of this study is to assess the interest of the plasmatic free circulating DNA (cfDNA) on the clinical response for patients with different types of cancer treated with immunotherapies. The primary objective is to assess the performance of the plasmatic free circulating DNA using the estimation of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calculation of the area under the curve (AUC) on the response rate.
