Molecular Profiling of Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcomas
Molecular Profiling of Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcomas. A Phase III Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
MULTISARC is a randomized multicenter study assessing whether high throughput molecular analysis (next generation sequencing exome - NGS) is feasible in advanced/metastatic soft-tissue sarcoma patients, that is, whether NGS can be conducted for a large proportion of patients, with results available within reasonnable delays. In parallel, MULTISARC aims to assess efficacy of an innovative treatment strategy guided by high throughput molecular analysis (next generation sequencing exome, RNASeq \[NGS\]) in patients with Advanced/metastatic soft-tissue sarcomas. At the end of first-line treatment, participant's tumor profile of experimental Arm NGS (treatment strategy based on NGS results) will be discussed within a multidisciplinary tumor board which aims at discussing the genomic profiles and at providing a therapeutic decision for each participant. Participants for whom a targetable genomic alteration has been identified will be proposed to enter in one of the subsequent phase II single-arm sub-trial.

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment

- Previous enrolment in the present study,
- Any contraindication to first-line chemotherapy treatment.
- Phase II Sub-trials
Other illness
- Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (uncontrolled hypertension, active bleeding diatheses, or active Hepatitis B, C and HIV or active autoimmune disease),
- Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the trial or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol,
Other

Who the study is looking for
- Age ≥ 18 years,
- Histology: soft-tissue sarcoma confirmed by the RRePS Network, as recommended by the French NCI
- Unresectable locally advanced and/or metastatic STS
- No previous systemic treatment for advanced disease,
- ECOG ≤ 1
- Adequate hematological and metabolic functions: Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dL and albumin \> 30 g/L

- No prior or concurrent malignant disease diagnosed or treated in the last two years before inclusion. Note that patients with in situ carcinoma of the cervix, or adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or adequately treated localized prostate cancer, or other localized cancer under maintenance therapy can be included as long as they don't limit assessment of efficacy of first-line systemic therapy,
- Participant with a social security in compliance with the French law,
- Voluntary signed and dated written informed consent prior to any study specific procedure (ICF1)
- Participants already enrolled in MULTISARC and randomized/switched in Arm "NGS",
- ECOG performance status \< 1,
- Measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1,
- Molecular alteration identified by molecular profiling,
- Participants who have received a first-line systemic treatment at the inclusion,
- Participants must have advanced disease and must not be a candidate for other approved therapeutic regimen known to provide significant clinical benefit based on investigator judgement,
- Participants will have had a minimum of 21 days gap from last chemotherapy or immunotherapy or any other pharmacological therapy and/or radiotherapy prior to the first dose of study treatment,
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 3 days of enrolment and serum/urine pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the administration of the study drug,
- Female with child bearing potential and male participants with partners of child bearing potential must be willing to use two effectives forms of contraception (1 highly effective method and 1 barrier method), from beginning 3 weeks before the first dose of investigational product and until 3 months after discontinuing the study.
- Participant with a social security in compliance with the French law,
- Voluntary signed and dated written informed consent (ICF2) prior to any study specific procedure.
- Main exclusion Criteria:
- Previous treatment with the targeted therapy,
