About this study

Official title: Non-interventional Study for the Determination of Molecular Resistance Profiling to Targeted Therapies in Patients With Neoplastic Disease

The main purpose of this study is to define the molecular profile of selected solid tumors. From each participants will be collected biological materials for molecular analysis, including saliva, blood and vital tumor tissue derived form surgical or biopsy procedures. Whereas possible, vital tumor specimens will be inoculated and propagated in immunocompromised NOD/SCID mice to study the genetic correlations between genetic status and response to target drugs.

Solid Tumors

What is being measured

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

  1. number of patient correctly sampled

    number of patients with biological samples idoneous for molecular profiling testing (nucleic acid extraction, protein) over all recruited patients.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of five years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. number of patients with detected genetic alterations that respond to treatments assigned by physician.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of five years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Tumors, run by Fondazione del Piemonte per l'Oncologia at 15 sites in Italy.

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 13 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in Italy. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

number of patient correctly sampled (time frame: through study completion, an average of five 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 19 Mar 2026.
