What this Trial Is About

Researchers are exploring the use of comprehensive genomic profiling in cancer care to improve diagnosis and treatment. This study focuses on analyzing genetic information from tumor samples of various cancers, including lung, breast, ovary, pancreas, prostate, colorectum, melanoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, thyroid, endometrium, and cholangiocarcinoma. The goal is to identify gene alterations that may influence how patients respond to targeted therapies, supporting personalized medicine approaches. The study uses advanced sequencing technology to perform detailed genetic analysis on tumor samples already collected during diagnosis. Depending on the quality and quantity of the DNA or RNA extracted, patients' tumors undergo either comprehensive genome profiling covering at least 500 genes or targeted sequencing of panels with more than 50 genes. This approach allows for high-throughput genomic data generation at a reasonable cost and within a short timeframe. Participants will have their tumor samples processed to extract genetic material, which will be examined for mutations and other genomic changes. The study will monitor the comprehensive genomic profiles over a five-year period. This information is expected to help better understand cancer biology and support decisions around new molecularly targeted treatments. The trial is led by Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS and involves no intervention beyond the genetic analyses on existing tissue samples.
