Purpose

The purpose of this research is to test whether a blood-based 3D genome conformation mapping test called the Episwitch CiRT® can help to identify likelihood of response to PD-(L)-1 checkpoint inhibitors (a class of cancer drugs) across multiple oncological indications by comparing the results to actual treatment responses for cancer patients.

Detailed Description

The Episwitch CiRT® (Checkpoint inhibitor Response Test) predicts how a patient will respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapies by delivering a binary response likelihood profile (High Probability vs. Low Probability). Patients who have been diagnosed with stage III and IV cancer and who are candidates and/or planned to receive immune check point inhibitors as a therapy now or in near future will be offered the Episwitch CiRT™ before starting treatment or if on active treatment. Those patients with high probability of response to ICI will undergo repeat testing every three months. Patients will be followed for up to six months. Treatment administered, disease-free survival, overall survival, stable disease, progressive disease, complete response, time to recurrence, physician questionnaires and patient-reported outcomes will be recorded for six months. Comprehensive data of Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) will be collected to identify any correlation to unmet Health Related Social Needs (HrSN) and likelihood to response and/or resistance

Notice

Study information shown on this site is derived from ClinicalTrials.gov (a public registry operated by the National Institutes of Health). The listing of studies provided is not certain to be all studies for which you might be eligible. Furthermore, study eligibility requirements can be difficult to understand and may change over time, so it is wise to speak with your medical care provider and individual research study teams when making decisions related to participation.
