Study Summary
This pilot research trial studies molecular profiling in tissue samples from patients with cancer who got better with treatment that didn't work for most other patients with the same disease. Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and identify biomarkers related to how well patients respond to treatment.
Primary Outcome
The molecular features of the tumors in the patients will be discernible as distinct to the tumor by comparison to (i) samples from normal tissue in the same patient and (ii) databases of similar data for normal and other tumor types.
