Official title

A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing the Effectiveness of Physician Discretion Guided Therapy Versus Physician Discretion Guided Plus Next-Generation Sequence Directed Therapy

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This randomized clinical trial studies how well next generation sequence target-directed therapy works in treating patients with cancer. Next generation sequencing is a test that screens for mutations to cancer related genes. Target-directed therapy is a type of treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific types of cancer cells that may have less harm to normal cells. Next generation sequencing may help identify these specific types of cancer cells.
