Overview

This is a non-randomized observational trial designed to collect detailed clinical, social determinant, and genomic data from patients enrolled in molecular oncology tumor boards across four comprehensive cancer centers.

Description

This study proposes an innovative approach leveraging the molecular tumor boards across four comprehensive cancer centers, where real- world, diverse patients with metastatic cancer are seen receiving a broad scope of therapies in the context of precision medicine. The study plans to collect detailed clinical, social, and genomic data from patients to identify significant contributors of disparate survival and toxicity outcomes for patients with metastatic cancer.
