Trial summary

Prior to the use of genomic tests for patient inclusion in clinical trials, it is essential for the Jules Bordet Institute (JBI) to pilot the logistical and technical aspects by examining the feasibility and turnaround time of performing and obtaining data from a few key molecular assays.

About this study

Official title: THE JULES BORDET INSTITUTE PROGRAM FOR MOLECULAR PROFILING OF METASTATIC LESIONS: FEASIBILITY. PRECISION - Feasibility.

Prior to the use of genomic tests for patient inclusion in clinical trials, it is essential for the Jules Bordet Institute (JBI) to pilot the logistical and technical aspects by examining the feasibility and turnaround time of performing and obtaining data from a few key molecular assays.

Patients with metastatic colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma will be enrolled. Biopsie from metastatic lesions will be performed. A targeted cancer gene screen assay will be performed using DNA sequencing.

Results will be discussed during a molecular screening tumor board.

Being tested
Biopsy of a metastatic lesion.
Medical subject headings
Melanoma, Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Quality of the biopsies

    Percentage of frozen and FFPE core biopsies that are able to provide at least 1.5 μg of DNA of high quality suitable for molecular testing.

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Technical failure rate.

    Frequency of failures of each pathological and molecular tests.

    Measured: 1 month

  3. Percentage of patients with results within the specified turnaround time

    Percentage of patients for whom biopsy was performed within 10 working days from signature of the ICF and for whom all central laboratory results (pathology and molecular) will be available to the investigator within 15 working days from the time samples are received at the central laboratory (JBI).

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Feasibility of a tumor sequencing board.

    Ability of the "tumor sequencing board" to assign patients to ongoing clinical trials.

    Measured: 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biopsy of a metastatic lesion. in people with Colorectal Cancer Metastatic and Metastatic Melanoma, run by Jules Bordet Institute at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of the biopsies (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 May 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
