NCT ID NCT03269578
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study enrolls adults with cancer or benign tumors who are already participating in other trials at the National Cancer Institute. Researchers will collect and link medical records and research samples from all of a patient's past, current, and future studies. The goal is to track how cancers respond to different treatments over time, without requiring any new tests or procedures from participants.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help researchers better understand how different cancers respond to treatments over time, potentially guiding future therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational data-collection study, not a treatment trial. It does not test any new drug or intervention, so direct patient benefits are unlikely.
