Prospective, single centre, non-interventional exploratory research project that will be conducted on biological material and health-related personal data collected.
Single center, two-parts pilot, prospective study to assess the role of molecular tumor profiling in supporting patient enrollment in early phase clinical trials.
Part A: patients with solid tumors or lymphomas (n=40) who are potential candidates for early phase clinical trials will be offered to have their more recent archival tumor tissue analyzed for the presence of somatic genomic alterations with the pan-cancer NGS Ion TorrentTM OncomineTM Comprehensive Assay v3 platform.
Part B: patients who have been enrolled in early phase clinical trials (estimated number: 16-18) will have their archival tumor tissue assessed with HTG EdgeSeq Oncology Biomarker Panel Assay for RNA-Seq to explore gene expression signatures and blood collected and stored to create a repository of samples (¨liquid biopsy¨) for future research with the aim to investigate the mutational profile of ctDNA at baseline and the acquisition of new mutations at the time of disease progression as a consequence of treatment exposure.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Part A | Upon confirmation of the suitability for NGS analysis of the selected tumor sample, tumor DNA will be extracted and molecular profile will be performed using the pan-cancer NGS Ion TorrentTM OncomineTM Comprehensive Assay v3 according to manufacturer's instructions | ||
| Part B | FFPE tumor archival tissue will be used to perform RNA-Seq with NGS HTG EdgeSeq Oncology Biomarker Panel Assay using the HTG machine following the manufacture's protocol. Blood samples for "liquid biopsy" will be collected at two time points: 1) Any time after enrollment in an early clinical trial and before starting the investigational agent (1 x 10 ml blood sample in EDTA tube as source of normal DNA for comparative analysis; 2 x 10 ml blood samples in cell-free DNA BCT Tubes for ctDNA collection; 2) At the time of radiological or clinical tumor progression (2 x 10 ml blood samples in cell-free DNA BCT Tubes for ctDNA collection). Blood samples will be collected and stored to create a biobank of "liquid biopsy" for future analysis. |
