Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of testing whether a patient suffering from arge B-cell lymphoma will respond or not to a DNA repair pathway inhibitor comprising: i) determining the expression level (ELi) of several genes Gi-Gn selected from table A in a biological sample obtained from said patient comparing the expression level (ELi) determined at step i) with a predetermined reference level (ELRi) iii) calculating the DNA repair score trough the following formula (I), wherein ?i represent the regression ? coefficient reference value for the gene Gi and Ci=1 if the expression of the gene Gi (ELi) is higher than the predetermined reference level (ELRi) or Ci=?1 if the expression of the gene (ELi) is lower than or equal to the predetermined reference level (ELRi) iv) comparing the score DNARS determined at step iii) with a predetermined reference value DNARSR v) and concluding that the patient will respond to the treatment when the DNARS score is higher than the predetermined reference value DNARSg o
