Sponsor

Liu Huang

Enrollment

55 participants

Start Date

Aug 4, 2023

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

To explore the consistency between result of PTC drug screening tests and actual clinical outcome for patients with advanced malignancy.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study uses a specialized drug sensitivity test on cancer cells collected from fluid build-up in the chest (pleural effusion) or abdomen (ascites) to guide personalized treatment for patients with advanced, incurable cancers. The goal is to identify which drugs will work best for each individual patient. **You may be eligible if...** - You are between 18 and 75 years old - You have an advanced, unresectable cancer confirmed by biopsy - You are able to tolerate anti-cancer treatment without serious heart or lung disease - You have at least one measurable tumor - Standard cancer treatments are no longer working or are not tolerable for you - Your overall health (ECOG score) allows you to carry out self-care activities - Your expected survival is at least 6 months **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are pregnant or breastfeeding - You are enrolled in another clinical trial - Your nutritional status is significantly compromised Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTPatient-derived tumor-like cell clusters (PTC) drug sensitivity testing.

Fresh malignant effusion samples were collected from advanced malignancy patients for PTC drug sensitivity testing, then assess the accuracy of this diagnostic test by combination and analysis with final clinical outcome.
