About this study

Official title: Decision Impact Analysis of Foundation Medicine's Next Generation Sequencing Test in Advanced Solid Tumor Malignancies

This pilot clinical trial studies comprehensive gene sequencing in guiding treatment recommendations in patients with metastatic or recurrent solid tumors. Studying samples of blood and tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may improve the ability to plan treatment.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the feasibility and logistics associated with a clinical trial utilizing the Foundation Medicine Incorporated (FMI) test in an academic therapeutic setting.

II. To determine the proportion of patients who will receive a cancer-related therapy based on the results provided by the FMI test.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To explore and report estimates of progression free survival (PFS) of the regimen administered after the FMI test results are revealed and the PFS of the most recent regimen administered before the FMI test results were received.

II. To determine the feasibility of performing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) on metastatic tumor tissue.

III. To determine the feasibility of administering cancer-related drugs that are proposed by the results of NGS that are not Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for a patient's specific cancer diagnosis.

IV. To collect and report the molecular alterations discovered by NGS of advanced breast and colorectal cancer.

  1. To determine in an exploratory manner the concordance of the genomic alterations detected by the FMI test in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) to the genomic alterations detected by FMI test in tumor tissues collected from the same patient.

OUTLINE:

PART I: Within 10 weeks of beginning a treatment regimen, tumor tissue samples and CTCs from patients are collected for NGS and FMI testing, respectively. Patients remain on current line of therapy until a change in treatment is warranted. The physician's treatment recommendation is documented prior to the release of the FMI results.

PART II: Physicians are furnished with FMI test results when patients become eligible for a change in therapy and new treatment recommendations are documented. Treatment is dependent on preferences of the physician, patient, and/or results of the FMI test.

After completion of study, patients are followed up for at least 18 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • cytology specimen collection procedureOther

    Also called cytologic sampling

    Undergo collection of CTCs for NGS and FMI testing, respectively.The most recent tumor sample collected from the patient with enough tissue to perform NGS testing will be selected. Tumor from a metastatic or recurrent cancer lesion is preferred but not required. Tumor collection is for standard of care purposes and thus not detailed in this protocol.For each tissue specimen, a representative H\&E stained section will be evaluated by a qualified pathologist to confirm the histopathological diagnosis of cancer and to make a quantitative estimate of the proportion of the specimen that is tumor-related cells and the proportion that is non-tumor cells.

  • laboratory biomarker analysisOther

    Also called Correlative studies, blood samples

    2 tubes of 7.5 mL blood samples each will be collected at time tumor tissue is sent to FMI and sent to Cynvenio Biosystems, Inc for CTC isolation and analysis. Patient CTCs will be recovered using Cynvenio CTC flow cell technology (Cynvenio Biosystems, Inc.) and enumerated using a combination of CD45, DAPI and cytokeratin staining.1 DNA will be isolated from CTCs and amplified using Φ-29 whole genome amplification (GE Healthcare). Sequencing to be performed by FoundationOne™ protocol.

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of NGS on metastatic solid tumor tissue, in terms of number of patients screened, FMI test attempted, FMI test successful, and FMI tests results released to physicians

    Summary tables will be generated.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

  2. Feasibility of NGS result-based non-FDA-approved treatment plan, measured by reasons for ability or inability to receive an anti-cancer agent

    Summary tables will be generated.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

  3. Availability of recommended experimental regimens via clinical trials

    Measured: Up to 18 months

  4. Proportion of patients who have one recommended therapy

    The proportion of patients who have one recommended therapy recommended will be assessed and compared with the proportion who have multiple options recommended. Summarized, and estimates derived along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

  5. Proportion of patients who have multiple options recommended

    The proportion of patients who have one recommended therapy recommended will be assessed and compared with the proportion who have multiple options recommended. Summarized, and estimates derived along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 18 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Presence of any oncogene or tumor suppressor gene mutations or amplifications identified by NGS on tumor tissue in each cohort

    Measured: Up to 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Recurrent Breast Cancer and Recurrent Colon Cancer, run by Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 3 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 28 Oct 2021. 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 United States. 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?

Feasibility of NGS on metastatic solid tumor tissue, in terms of number of patients screened, FMI test attempted, FMI test successful, and FMI tests results released to physicians (time frame: Up to 18 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01987726, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Oct 2021.
