What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether detailed genetic testing of tumor tissue or blood can help doctors make better treatment decisions for people with advanced solid tumors or primary brain cancers. About 550 participants will have their tumors genetically profiled, and a smaller group without available tissue will have blood-based testing. The goal is to see how often this information leads to a recommended targeted therapy and whether doctors follow those recommendations.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) via tissue or liquid biopsy
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that routine genomic profiling helps doctors choose more effective, personalized treatments for advanced cancers.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not prove that profiling improves outcomes, and results may not apply to all cancer types.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

550 consecutive patients with metastatic solid tumors that are eligible for a systemic therapy recruited on a first come first serve basis. 500 patients will be tested on a tissue biopsy and 50 patients will be tested on a liquid biopsy when tissue biopsy is not available or feasible for safety reason.

Ages

18 years and older

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adult patient (minimum 18 years) able to provide written informed consent for GeNeo 2.0. 2. ECOG Performance status ≤2 3. Patients with advanced solid tumors or primary CNS tumors that are candidates for systemic anticancer therapy and open for enrollment in a potential downstream therapeutic trial. Enrollment in early treatment lines is strongly encouraged Tumor cohorts of breast cancer and lung cancer will be prioritized, with a minimum cap of 100 for each tumor type. Recruitment for all other tumor type cohorts will be capped at a maximum of 40 patients per tumor type. The MTB can decide on prematurely closing or extending tumor type cohorts based on treatment recommendations, clinical trial landscape or downstream treatment options. Enrollment of patients early in the advanced treatment setting will be strongly encouraged. 4. Patients should have archived tissue available from a metastatic (preferred) or primary lesion biopsy for comprehensive profiling. The tissue should not be more than 2 years-old and fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin. Tumor cell content should be \>20% Exclusion Criteria: 1. Life expectancy of ≤12 weeks according to the local investigator 2. Clinically significant hematopoietic, renal and/or hepatic dysfunction, according to the local investigator, which would make them ineligible for MGTO therapy 3. Patients unwilling to comply with GeNeo 2.0 protocol data collection, data sharing and other study procedures 4. Patients unwilling to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures.
