Database study for metastatic GI cancer care
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study collects clinical and lab information to better understand metastatic cancers of the digestive system and how patients respond to treatment. It may help improve future care, but it is mainly focused on collecting data rather than testing a new drug.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study builds a clinical and biological database for people newly diagnosed with certain cancers. It may help doctors better understand cancer patterns and improve future care, and it involves agreeing to extra blood samples.
This study collects clinical and lab information from people who have surgery for colon cancer (or certain precancer growths) and related spread to organs. It may help researchers better understand colon cancer and improve future care, but it is not a new medication trial.
This is a study that collects information and samples from people diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. It helps doctors better understand these cancers by building a clinical and biological database, which may improve care planning in the future.
This study collects medical and lab information from adults with pancreatic cancer to help researchers understand care and outcomes. You may be asked for follow-up visits and basic data, and it may be used to improve future treatments.
This study collects medical information and small tissue or fluid samples from people with peritoneal (abdominal lining) cancer. It aims to better understand the disease and improve future care plans.
This study collects clinical information and planned blood samples to better understand “cachexia,” which is a serious wasting condition that can happen with advanced cancer. It may help doctors find better ways to predict and manage symptoms in people with colon cancer who can’t have surgery.
