- Original description
The PLATON Network study is designed to elevate personalized therapy based on genomic tumor profiles in gastrointestinal cancer patients. Hereby, PLATON's study-design focuses on the patient's tumor molecular profiling. Within the network a web application will be developed to link clinical investigators and information on study sites, cancer patients and genetic alteration data, as well as available clinical trials at PLATON's study sites.Read full original descriptionShow less
The Platform for Analyzing Targetable Tumor Mutations Network (Main-study)
The PLATON Network study is designed to elevate personalized therapy based on genomic tumor profiles in gastrointestinal cancer patients. Hereby, PLATON's study-design focuses on the patient's tumor molecular profiling. Within the network a web application will be developed to link clinical investigators and information on study sites, cancer patients and genetic alteration data, as well as available clinical trials at PLATON's study sites.
Inclusion: Histologically confirmed diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma or intra- cholangiocarcinoma, extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder carcinoma or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma or esophagogastric adenocarcinoma in the advanced setting (adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy is allowed if completed 6 months prior to enrolment) and no local curative therapy available; Standard first line therapy is planned, or patient is currently receiving first-line therapy; Available tumor-genomic profile ( ≥50-gene panel assay; approved and assessed by central review), unless central tumor genomic profiling is done within a sub-study; ECOG 0-2; Life expectancy ≥ 6 months.
Exclusion: Age < 18 years; Not able to understand all implications of study participation; No written informed consent.
