Cancer, Immune System or Toxicities Suspected
Conditions
Keywords
tumor-antigen specific immune cells, circulating tumor DNA
Brief summary
The study will evaluate the detection of tumor-antigen specific immune cells in cancer patients in whom the role of the immune system is suspected.
Interventions
lymphapheresis before and during treatment, blood sample in CellSave® tubes (15mL) will be taken at baseline and three weeks, and EDTA tubes (15mL) will be taken at baseline, 3 weeks after treatment start and at progression

Patients on high dose corticosteroid treatment (\> 1 mg / kg continuously), 4. Any concomitant serious illness that may interfere with participation in the study or significantly affect the results of the study (pulmonary, heart or liver disease), 5. Contraindication to performing lymphapheresis (coagulation disorder, cardiovascular problems, venous access, hypocalcemia, psychological inability to undergo extracorporeal circulation, cachexia, etc.), 6. Pregnant patient or of childbearing age without effective contraception, 7. Persons deprived of their liberty, under guardianship or legal protection.
