Gene-Guided cancer therapy: a new hope for advanced tumors?

NCT ID NCT05525858

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study enrolls 1,000 adults with advanced solid tumors that have progressed after standard treatment. Researchers will use genetic tests to match patients to specific drugs, like Alectinib or Atezolizumab, based on their tumor's gene changes. The goal is to see if this personalized approach is feasible and helps control the cancer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Alectinib, Atezolizumab, and other targeted/immunotherapies based on genomic alterations
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that using genetic tests to choose cancer treatments improves outcomes for people with advanced solid tumors who have run out of standard options.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage feasibility study, not a large confirmatory trial. The treatments are used outside their approved indications, so benefits are uncertain and there may be unexpected side effects.
