About this study

National, retro- and prospective, observational, multicenter clinical research platform to connect clinical and genomic data of patients with advanced (locally advanced, inoperable, or metastatic) solid tumors (excluding NSCLC, SCLC, and mesothelioma) with results from multi-gene next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels (>30 genes)

Read the detailed description

The AIO-BNHO CONNECT research platform is a clinic-genomic database collecting data on NGS results and corresponding clinical outcomes in patients with advanced solid tumors (excluding NSCLC, SCLC, and mesothelioma). Data of deceased patients will be included. The platform will provide insight into the current state of precision oncology in Germany by compiling real-world data encompassing a broad spectrum of care providers including but not limited to practice-based oncologists, community hospitals, and university hospitals. The platform also comprises a decentral tissue repository with clinically annotated tumor specimens retrieved within routine clinical care that can be used in future collaborative research projects.

What participants receive

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

  • Minimal documentationOther

    Minimal data documentation only of patients without targeted therapy based on NGS results

  • Extended documentationOther

    Extended data documentation of patients with targeted therapy based on NGS results

What is being measured

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

  1. Molecular tumorboard utilization

    Proportion of patients who's case was discussed in a Molecular tumorboard

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Treatment reality after NGS analysis

    Proportion of patients who received at least one targeted therapy based on NGS results, who exclusively received therapies other than targeted therapies based on NGS results or who did not receive any therapy

    Measured: 3 years

  3. NGS

    Genomic alterations identified by multi-gene NGS panels

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Molecular tumorboard

    Descriptive analysis of MTB-based therapy recommendations, their implementation rate and reasons for non-implementation

    Measured: 3 years

  5. Overall response rate

    Overall response rate of targeted therapy based on NGS results

    Measured: 3 years

  6. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Progression-free survival from start of targeted therapy based on NGS results

    Measured: 3 years

  7. Overall survival

    Overall survival from start of targeted therapy based on NGS results

    Measured: 3 years

  8. PFS ratio

    PFS interval associated with targeted therapy(ies) administered after NGS analysis divided by the time to progression (TTP) interval associated with the last prior treatment(s)

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Advanced Solid Tumor, run by AIO-Studien-gGmbH at 3 sites in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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?

Contact Marc Fischer (+49 30-8145344 ext. 44, marc.fischer@aio-studien-ggmbh.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Molecular tumorboard utilization (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 17 Feb 2025.
