About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Exceptional Responders With Solid Tumor Cancer

This is an observational study enrolling patients with Solid Tumor cancers to identify genomic expression differences between exceptional responders and non-responders to standard of care chemotherapy. Data analysis of the gene expression profile of the exceptional responders compared to non-responders will define genomic patterns that may help understand their response to chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational study of patients with solid tumor cancer to identify genomic expression differences obtained from their circulating tumor cells between exceptional responders and non-responders to standard of care chemotherapy. This study requires a 10 mL heparinized peripheral blood sample from each study participant at the time of enrollment to isolate, enrich and profile circulating tumor cells. Data analysis of the gene expression profile will define genomic patterns using Nearest Template Prediction for a predetermined panel of therapeutic agents based on standard of care. Chemotherapy selection is physician-choice. Information regarding disease progression will be gathered. Data analysis will be performed in study participants in the setting of ongoing disease progression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Tumor Neoplasms, run by Adera Labs, LLC 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 3 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Feb 2023. 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?

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?

Identify exceptional responders with cancer to standard of care chemotherapy (time frame: 9 years). 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 NCT02555735, which also lists 3 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 1 Feb 2023.
