About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of matching patients to targeted therapy by analyzing a tumor sample taken at diagnosis and testing it against 50 cancer-associated genes. Targeted therapy is a highly personalized, newer approach to cancer treatment that aims to more precisely identify and attack cancer cells, in an effort to do less damage to normal cells.

Read the detailed description

Targeted therapy in this study can be either off label-use of a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug or a clinical trial that includes investigational drugs. Matched targeted therapy outcomes will be compared to the outcomes of patients who were not matched to a treatment.

In order to find a matched treatment, a patient's sample will undergo a test known as a "gene chip algorithm." This is will be done by having a sample of a patient's tumor analyzed at a Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (CSMC) laboratory that specializes in molecular profiling. Molecular profiling is a process used to study a tumor's genetic characteristics. DNA will be taken from the tumor sample and will be screened for "actionable genes." These genes are called actionable because mutations (structural changes) in these genes have FDA-approved matched therapies or are eligible for current clinical studies.

What participants receive

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

  • Matched targeted drug treatmentOther

    Matching a specific genetic abnormality (i.e. mutation) with the appropriate targeted drug.

  • Unmatched standard of careOther

    All patients with either no identified mutation or no available matching treatment but undergoing a systemic treatment will be enrolled in the "control group."

What is being measured

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

  1. Response rate

    To evaluate the proportion of patients with response to targeted study agent(s) in patients with advanced cancers.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Progression free survival

    To evaluate the proportion of patients alive and progression free at 6 months of treatment with targeted study agent in patients with advanced cancers.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Overall survival

    Evaluate time until death.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer, run by Cedars-Sinai Medical 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 6 inclusion and 1 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 6 Mar 2024. 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?

Response rate (time frame: 3 years). 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 6 Mar 2024.
