Purpose

This is a substudy (Part 2) of a larger two-part clinical trial including both observational and therapeutic (interventional) cohorts to assess the progression free survival ratio of patients treated with a targeted therapy based on genomic analysis results and recommendation by the Markey Cancer Center Molecular Tumor Board (MCC MTB).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients who have had chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 3 weeks (6 weeks for nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to entering the study or those who have not recovered from adverse events due to agents administered more than 3 weeks earlier. - Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with targeted therapy, in the opinion of the treating physician. - Pregnant women are excluded from this study. - HIV positive patients with CD4 counts below 500 OR who are not on a stable dose of antiretroviral therapy (for at least 1 month prior to registration) are ineligible.

Detailed Description

This prospective, single-arm trial in patients with refractory metastatic cancer will compare the Progression Free Survival (PFS) using a treatment regimen selected by the MCC MTB with the PFS (time to tumor progression) for the most recent regimen on which the patient had experienced progression (i.e., using patients as their own control).
