Trial summary

PERMED01 is a prospective monocenter clinical trial which aims to evaluate the number patients with locally advanced or metastatic cancer for whom identification of molecular alterations in tumor samples can lead to the delivery of a targeted therapy. PERMED01 will enroll 460 patients in 3 years. Read more about this study

What is being measured

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

  1. proportion of screened patients in whom a molecular abnormality for which a targeted therapy exists

    Measured: 4-6 weeks after biopsy

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Molecular Characterization of locally advanced and metastatic malignancies using next generation sequencing

    Measured: 3.5 years

  2. Full exome and transcriptome sequencingof locally advanced and metastatic tumours

    Measured: 6 years

  3. Circulating tumor DNA detection and characterization in locally advanced and metastatic disease

    Measured: 4 years

  4. Circulating Tumor Cells (CTC) detection and characterization in breast cancer

    Comparison of three distinct methods for the CTC detection in blood

    Measured: 3.5 years

  5. Preclinical predictive clinical models validation (limited to breast cancer)

    Patient-derived tumour xenograft models (PDX), drug sensitivity tests in vitro

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing biopsy or surgical sampling and blood sampling in people with Neoplasm Metastasis, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 1 site in France.

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 6 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 21 Apr 2026. 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 France. 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?

proportion of screened patients in whom a molecular abnormality for which a targeted therapy exists (time frame: 4-6 weeks after biopsy). 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 NCT02342158, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 21 Apr 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
