Inclusion criteria

  • Over 18 years old.
  • Advanced-stage malignant solid tumor managed in a non-curative context.
  • Patient eligible for Multidisciplinary molecular biology meeting with available archived tumor material (frozen or FFPE block, less than 5 years old) or a biopsiable tumor lesion.
  • Patient able to read, write, and understand the French language.
  • Patient has read the information sheet and signed the .
  • Patient has social security coverage.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Previous or concurrent cancer diagnosed or treated within the last 5 years, except for in situ carcinoma of the cervix, basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, and adequately treated in situ carcinoma of the bladder.
  • Severe or uncontrolled systemic disease.
  • Any condition which, in the investigator's judgment (geographical, social, or psychological factors, etc.), makes the patient unable to comply with study follow-up and procedures.
  • Patient considered a vulnerable person; vulnerable persons are defined in Articles L1121-5 to L1121-8:

    • Pregnant women, women in labor, and breastfeeding mothers,
    • Persons deprived of liberty by judicial or administrative decision, individuals hospitalized without consent under Articles L. 3212-1 and L. 3213-1 who do not fall under the provisions of Article L. 1121-8,
    • Persons admitted to a healthcare or social institution for reasons other than research,
    • Adults unable to give their consent.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Experimental

    For this study, the included patients will have a blood sample (36 mL) taken. Molecular analyses will be performed on this blood sample (liquid biopsy) in addition to the molecular analyses routinely conducted on the tumor sample (solid biopsy).

    Procedure: Blood sample taken for the liquid biopsy

Interventions

  • ProcedureBlood sample taken for the liquid biopsy

    36 mL will be taken for the study.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Sensitivity of liquid biopsy versus solid biopsy (gold standard)

    The primary endpoind is the sensitivity of liquid biopsy versus solid biopsy as the gold standard for detecting genomic alterations evaluated in the studied gene panel. The panel will consist of 70 genes common to the PanoraMix panels (125 genes, FFPE) and Avida (104 genes, cpDNA).

    Time frame: 1 month

Secondary outcomes

  1. Specificity of liquid biopsy versus solid biopsy (gold standard)

    The specificity of liquid biopsy versus solid biopsy as the gold standard in the detection of genomic alterations evaluated in the studied gene panel.

    Time frame: 1 month

  2. Failure rate of molecular screening

    The failure rate of molecular screening (defined as the inability to provide the genetic profile from the liquid biopsy due to technical failure).

    Time frame: 1 month

  3. Clinical factors predictive of the sensitivity of liquid biopsy.

    Clinical factors predictive of the sensitivity of liquid biopsy.

    Time frame: 1 month

  4. Rate of unexploitable results

    The rate of unexploitable results, defined as the rate of results that do not allow for classification for each technique of the results as True Positive, False Positive, False Negative, or True Negative.

    Time frame: 1 month

  5. Time required to obtain each analysis

    The time required to obtain each analysis, defined as the time between the prescription of the test and the delivery of the result.

    Time frame: 1 month
