Building models from your tumor to guide treatment
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial takes a small sample of your tumor to grow a model in the lab. This model helps doctors test which treatments might work best for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have stage 2, 3, or 4 solid tumor cancer
- You have tried at least one prior treatment that stopped working or your cancer came back
- The tumor being sampled has not been treated with radiation in the last 10 weeks
- You can safely have a biopsy or surgery to get a fresh tumor sample
- You are willing to share your medical and genetic information for research
- You are 18 years or older

This study uses tumor tissue from real patients to create lab models that can help researchers test treatments. You might be able to join if you need a biopsy or surgery for care and it’s safe to collect a small amount of tissue for research.
This trial collects a small piece of your tumor right after it is removed during surgery. Researchers will study this tissue to learn more about cancer and how it responds to treatments.
This study uses advanced DNA testing on tumor samples to help match cancer treatments more precisely. It may help researchers learn which cancer changes are driving your tumor and how they relate to treatment choices.
This Phase 2 study uses a team review of your tumor’s gene test results to help match you with treatments you may benefit from. It’s designed for people whose tumor has specific gene changes that suggest sensitivity to available medicines or may involve inherited (germline) risk.
This study aims to create personalized models (like miniature tumors in a dish) from your cells to better understand your cancer and find new ways to treat it. Both people with solid tumors and healthy volunteers are welcome to participate.
This study looks at your tumor’s genetic information to help doctors recommend treatment for cancers that have spread. It may help you get the most suitable therapy based on what’s found in your tumor.
