Study summary

The objective of this Phase II, open-label, multicenter, non-randomised controlled clinical trial is to guide precision treatment for patients with rare tumours based on Patient-Derived Organoids/Next-Generation Sequencing drug screening.

Read the detailed description

Rare tumours, defined as those with an annual incidence rate of less than 2.5/100,000 according to the data from the National Cancer Registry of the National Cancer Center of China, represent a significant unmet medical need due to the lack of high-level evidence-based clinical practice guidelines and standard regimens. Patient-Derived Organoids(PDOs), which preserves the histologic and genetic characteristics of patients; tumours, have demonstrated predictive value of clinical outcomes. Prior studies have shown that PDOs-based drug screens can predict treatment response with high sensitivity and specificity.The investigators thus propose the study: A Phase II Clinical Study on Precision Treatment of Rare Tumours in China Guided by Patient-Derived Organoids and Next-Generation Sequencing. Investigators aim to determine clinical efficacy of PDOs/NGS-guided precision treatment in patients with rare tumours. After tumour samples were collected, drug screening using PDOs and NGS will be conducted. Molecular Tumor board(MTB) will review the results and develop an individualised treatment regimens. Primary endpoint of this study is objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints include disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and duration of response (DoR).
