NCT ID NCT02215928

Summary

This study is testing whether analyzing the genetic makeup of a person's cancer can help doctors recommend more effective, personalized treatments. Researchers will collect tumor samples and blood from 100 adults with advanced cancer that has spread. The main goal is to see if this 'genomic profiling' approach is practical and can identify specific drug targets for individual patients.
