Prospective Screening for Patient-Specific Genotypes and Phenotypes That Influence Drug Dosing and Trial Selection in Cancer Patients

NCT02706652 · Status: TERMINATED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 8

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Background:

People's genetic markers and other genetic characteristics can affect their response to drug therapy. Researchers want to screen people for these markers and characteristics. They want to do this before the people are screened for studies at the National Cancer Institute. That should save time that can be lost when people go through the whole screening for a study only to find out they cannot join. The data collected may also be used to select the proper dose of anticancer agents that are being studied.

Objective:

To screen people for genetic markers and/or baseline characteristics. These will be used to determine if they can enroll in a clinical trial. They may also be used to select the proper dose of anticancer agents that are being tested.

Eligibility:

Adults 18 and older who are being considered for or being treated in a National Cancer Institute study

Design:

Participants will have their blood drawn for genetic tests.

Some participants will have a cheek swab.

Participants genetic data will be stored for future research. It could be shared with other researchers.
