About this trial

A single-arm prospective observational translational study of biomarkers in patients receiving targeted treatment for rare subtypes of cancer of the Gastrointestinal Tract.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Diagnosis of a rare subtype of GI cancer including BRAF V600E mutation, MSI-H, HER2 and others

Diagnosis of cancer of the gastrointestinal tract may be made by histo- or cyto-pathology, or by clinical and imaging criteria

Planned for targeted treatment

Age 18 years or older

Disqualifiers

Conditions precluding translational blood sampling

Another concomitant cancer

Trial population

The study population consists of patients with rare subtypes of cancer of the gastrointestinal tract, who by standard of care are candidates for targeted treatment

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Feasibility and translational analysis

Investigating potential prognostic and predictive markers for efficacy by molecular characteristics and mutational analysis. We seek to describe the prognostic and predictive value of cfDNA, ctDNA and other markers, e.g. evaluate baseline cf- and ctDNA levels, fluctuations of cf- and ctDNA during treatment and follow up.

Quality of Life by EORTC QLQ-C30

Patients are asked to indicate their symptoms during the past week(s). Scores can be linearly transformed to provide a score from 0 to 100. Higher scores represent better functioning on the functional scales and a higher level of symptoms on the symptom scales.
