Study Summary

This phase II trial studies how well genetic testing works in guiding treatment for patients with solid tumors that have spread to the brain. Several genes have been found to be altered or mutated in brain metastases such as NTRK, ROS1, CDK, PI3K, or KRAS G12C. Medications that target these genes such as abemaciclib, paxalisib, entrectinib and adagrasib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Genetic testing may help doctors tailor treatment for each mutation.

Primary Outcome

Assessed per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria for brain metastases. The response rate is defined as the number of patients who have achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per RANO for brain metastases criteria during treatment with CDK, PI3K, NTRK/ROS, or KRAS G12C inhibitors divided by total number of evaluable patients. The response rate and associated exact confidence interval will be estimated within each cohort defined by the targeted agent and histolo
