Understanding Transformed Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma
This study is looking at Transformed Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma (t-SMZL), a rare type of cancer that is difficult to treat. Researchers want to better understand the genetic changes (mutations, copy number abnormalities, and structural variants) that happen in t-SMZL. They will look at these changes both when the original Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma (SMZL) is diagnosed and when it transforms into t-SMZL. The goal is to find out what causes this transformation and to identify new ways to treat it. You might be able to join if you are an adult (18 or older) with a diagnosis of t-SMZL and have available tumor tissue samples. This is an observational study, meaning researchers will collect and analyze existing information, not test new treatments.
- Study design
- This is an observational study planning to include 100 participants. Researchers will collect and analyze existing medical information and tumor samples.
- What's involved
- Not specified in the trial record.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Researchers will analyze data up to 30 months from the end of sample collection.

What this trial measures
- Prevalence of mutations, copy number abnormalities and structural variants at SMZL diagnosis and at HT30 months: from the end of samples collection to the end of study analysis
