Can genetic markers guide better cancer treatment?

NCT ID NCT05145244

First seen Aug 12, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This observational study is following about 2,400 adults with non-small cell lung cancer or breast cancer to see how biomarkers, including whole-genome sequencing, relate to their outcomes. Participants receive their usual cancer care, and researchers track progression-free survival, overall survival, quality of life, and side effects. The goal is to understand if certain biological markers can help predict how well treatments work, potentially leading to more personalized cancer care in the future.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors predict which cancer treatments work best for individual patients, leading to more personalized care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may take years and might not change practice immediately.
