Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: FUNNEL population consists of individual at least 18 years of age with newly diagnosed metastatic colorectal carcinoma at the first sign of metastasis (adjuvant relapse or first diagnosis)

Who may be able to join

  • Histological confirmed adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum with metastatic disease not amenable to salvage surgery.
  • Planned primary treatment at FUNNEL center or FUNNEL center referring Hospital.
  • Availability of fresh tissue or a paraffin block for genotyping NOT older than 1 year.
  • Age ≥18.
  • ECOG PS 0-1.
  • No major comorbidities that would preclude the potential enrolment of the patient in a clinical trial.
  • Signed informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Symptomatic brain metastases.
  • Gastro-intestinal abnormalities, inability to take oral medication, any condition affecting absorption.
  • History of another neoplastic disease (except basal cell carcinoma of the skin or uterine cervix carcinoma in situ adequately treated), unless in remission for ≥ 5 years.
  • No major comorbidities that would preclude the potential enrolment of the patient in a clinical trial.

About this study

Official title: Multiplex Genotyping of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients for Precision Medicine Clinical Trials

The goal of delivering the right drug to the right cancer patient (precision medicine) requires a detailed understanding of how genomic alterations are linked to drug response. The purpose of this study is to intercept at point-of-care a large cohort of newly diagnosed mCRC patients to determine if it is possible to obtain personalized genetic information from each subject's tumor (tissue and blood) to triage treatment choices. In case of target positivity, patients will be conveyed, whenever possible, to self-standing, independent, hypothesis-driven POC trials as soon as they exhibit resistance to standard of care treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Thoroughness to report molecular profiling

    Percentage of patients with complete genotyping report produced in less than 14 days after sample acquisition.

    Measured: 14 days from sample acquisition

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Frequence of genetic alteration included in the panel detected in 1000 consecutive mCRC

    number of patients with detected genetic alteration included in the panel (mutations and/or copy number variations) over all recruited patients.

    Measured: 24 months from first patient in.

  2. Percentage of complete data capture for treatment-related check-point events

    Measured: through study completion, an average of five years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer, run by Fondazione del Piemonte per l'Oncologia at 5 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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Massimo Aglietta, md (massimo.aglietta@ircc.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Thoroughness to report molecular profiling (time frame: 14 days from sample acquisition). 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 30 Oct 2018.
