PLATON - Platform for Analyzing Targetable Tumor Mutations (Pilot-study)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
PLATON (Platform for Analyzing Targetable Mutations) is a prospective, multicentre, observational cohort study with biobanking. In a first approach PLATON's pilot-study assesses genomic profiling in gastrointestinal cancer therapy and the frequencies of targetable mutations including Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) and Microsatellite Instability Status (MSI), performing Next-generation deep sequencing (NGS) using the Foundation Medicine assays on tumor specimen and EDTA-whole blood samples. The Study Protocol does not define any further medical intervention or evaluate the efficacy or safety of the treatment decision made by the investigator. Another important objective of PLATON's pilot project is to evaluate whether and how many patients are treated based on their genomic profiles.

Detailed Description
PLATON (Platform for Analyzing Targetable Mutations) is designed to improve personalized therapy for patients in different cancer entities, such as in hepatocellular cancer (HCC), intra- and extrahepatic cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCA), gallbladder carcinoma (GBCA), pancreatic cancer (PanCa) and esophagogastric cancer (EC/GC), and elevate the treatment guidance within its framework. The key to understand the mechanisms in initiation, progression and response to treatment of cancer is the data integration of genetic mutational signatures with medical and physiological data of diseased cohorts.
PLATON is a prospective, multicentre, observational cohort study with biobanking and does not define any medical intervention or evaluate the efficacy or safety of the treatment decision made by the investigator.In a first approach PLATON's pilot-study assess genomic profiling in gastrointestinal cancer therapy and the frequencies of targetable mutations including Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) and Microsatellite Instability Status (MSI), performing Next-generation deep sequencing (NGS) using the Foundation Medicine assays on tumor specimen and EDTA-whole blood samples. Another important objective of PLATON's pilot project is to evaluate whether and how many patients are treated based on their genomic profiles.
The pilot-study starts with the national-wide enrolment of 200 participants of both sexes and ages over 18 at 40 german study sites. The long-term vision is to enable cancer patients to receive the best available, scientifically founded, biomarker-based care, tailored to his or her individual needs

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Hepatocellular Cancer molecular profiling - hepatocellular cancer (HCC) |
Diagnostic Test: FoundationOne®CDx and FoundationOne®Liquid
FoundationOne CDx is a FDA-approved broad companion diagnostic (CDx) that is clinically and analytically validated for solid tumors. The test is designed to provide physicians with clinically actionable information - both to consider appropriate therapies for patients and understand results with evidence of resistance - based on the individual genomic profile of each patient's cancer. Every test result includes microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational burden (TMB) to help inform immunotherapy decisions. FoundationOne®Liquid is a liquid biopsy test for solid tumors that analyzes circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood.

Secondary Outcome Measures
- Heterogeneity of targetable alterations in paraffin embedded specimen vs. cfDNA [up to 4 weeks after biospecimen provision]
Number of differences (heterogeneity) in targetable alterations in paraffin specimen vs. cfDNA
- Relative frequency of targetable mutations (incl. TMB and MSI status) per disease group [up to 4 weeks after biospecimen provision]
Relative frequency of targetable mutations (incl. TMB and MSI status) per disease group
- Number of patients receiving therapies in accordance to their genomic profiles [up to 4 weeks after biospecimen provision]
Number of patients receiving therapies in accordance to their genomic profiles
