Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Create a data registry of clinical and molecular/genomic data

Create a data registry of clinical and molecular/genomic data from cancer patients who have undergone biopsy or surgical resection for clinical care to better understand the relationship between genomic and molecular information and clinical outcomes.

Time frame
10 Years
2

Determine number and types of genomic alterations within tumor types/subtypes

Define genomic landscape of pediatric cancers through the determination of the number and types of genomic alterations within tumor types/subtypes, across tumor types, and tumor evolution over time.

Time frame
10 Years
3

Evaluate the rate of actionable genomic alternations

Evaluate the rate of actionable genomic alternations resulting in associated targeted therapies relative to all actionable genomic alterations.

Time frame
10 Years
4

Evaluate the correlation of baseline genomic alterations with clinical outcome.

Evaluate the correlation of baseline genomic alterations with clinical outcome.

Time frame
