Personalized Functional Profiling in Metastatic Gastrointestinal Cancer or Recurrent Glioblastoma Patients in Luxembourg.

Study Purpose

The investigators are developing a novel standardized and centralized approach named Integrated Personalized Functional Profiling (PFP) in Luxembourg. Based on recent improvements in cancer biopsy-derived 3D-culture technologies the PFP process will screen patient derived cells (PDCs) with FDA/EMA-approved drugs to generate personalized functional response profiles. The selected drug through PFP technology will provide personalized treatment recommendation for the patient. This pilot study will evaluate the clinical feasibility of setting-up an effective workflow as a first step. Outcomes from this study will be used subsequently to help plan the clinical validation of the implementation of PFP.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT03997617
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Interventions

Diagnostic Test: - Personalized Functional Profiling

During this pilot study, the overall goal of the project is to establish an effective workflow between the patient, the PFP platform, the clinician and return to the patient. This includes collection of the biopsy or surgery piece and standardized processing, dissociation, drug profiling and issuing treatment recommendation to the clinician. In case the clinician follows this treatment recommendation, patient management and follow up will be performed according to standard of care.
