Circulating Micrornas As Biomarkers In Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: A Pilot Prospective Longitudinal Clinical Study

This study highlighted 5 circulating microRNAs whose plasma levels would be worth further investigating for the characterization of DLBCL evolution in patients. MiR-21 and miR-197 had a significant higher plasmatic level in patients with tumors unresponsive to treatment. With a higher plasma level in patients with complete remission, miR-19b, miR-20a, and miR-451 could enable to differentiate, at the remission review, patients with residual tumor, from patients with complete remission.
