Feasibility Clinical Study of Targeted and Genome-Wide Sequencing
Feasibility Clinical Study of Targeted and Genome-Wide Sequencing

This research is being done to find out what types of gene mutations are present in people with cancer. This study is designed to help researchers and doctors understand more about cancer. With this information, doctors may have a better idea as to which cancer treatments are most appropriate for certain patients. The information will also help researchers find out the how to identify genes in cancers from biopsies and blood samples and how to use this information to help doctors and patients make treatment decisions.

This is a prospective cohort study with the goal of obtaining fresh tumor biopsies and one blood sample from patients with a confirmed histological or cytological diagnosis of cancer, who are potential candidates for a phase I or II clinical trial at their local institution. DNA from fresh tumor biopsies and from mononuclear blood cells will be subjected to targeted and genome-wide sequencing to enable molecular characterization of tumors. Application of genomic information by investigators will be captured. Archived tumor samples will be requested from all patients. For patients with malignant ascites or pleural effusions, fluid and tumor samples will be evaluated.
