| 摘要 |
<p>The invention is directed to a method of monitoring a mantle cell lymphoma residual disease in an immunotransplant patient by post-treatment analysis of clonotype profiles from patient blood samples. In some embodiments, methods of the invention comprising steps of (a) treating a patient by immunotransplanting the patient with vaccine-primed autologous T cells; (b) obtaining a peripheral blood sample from the patient comprising B-cells and/or cell-free nucleic acids; (c) amplifying molecules of nucleic acid from the B-cells of the sample and/or cell-free nucleic acids in the sample, the molecules of nucleic acid comprising recombined DNA sequences from immunoglobulin genes; (d) sequencing the amplified molecules of nucleic acid to form a clonotype profile; and (e) determining from the clonotype profile a presence, absence and/or level of the one or more patient-specific clonotypes correlated with the mantle cell lymphoma, including phylogenic clonotypes thereof.</p> |
