Summary

This trial will test whether patients with rare tumors can benefit from treatment based on their NGS results.

Who is the study for?
Adults with rare solid tumors or lymphoma, who can provide consent and have an ECOG performance status of 0-2. They must be willing to share medical information, undergo blood draws, and provide tissue samples for genomic profiling. Excluded are those under 18, pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with uncontrolled illnesses that could affect study compliance, or active cancer requiring treatment within the past year.
What is being tested?
The TRACK Study is testing whether patients with rare cancers benefit from treatments based on their tumor's genetic profile using FoundationOne CDx and Liquid CDx tests. It's a practical trial where participants' previous biopsy samples are analyzed to guide therapy choices.
What are the potential side effects?
As this trial focuses on matching therapies to genetic profiles rather than specific drugs, side effects will vary depending on individualized treatment plans derived from the genomic profiling results.
