Umbrella Study for Single Patient Treatments in Oncology (UNIQUE)

February 22, 2024 updated by: University Health Network, Toronto

UNIQUE: Umbrella N-of-1 Tumor Trials - Umbrella Protocol for Oncology Single Patient Protocols

The purpose of this study is to collect data on how advanced and rare cancers respond to biomarker-based treatments.

Detailed Description

The UNIQUE umbrella protocol is an overarching framework to study precision medicine in patients with precise molecular data, who have exhausted all established treatment options and who are not eligible for any of the ongoing trials. There is no additional visit or procedure required to participate in this study. Participants who have received/who may receive the following treatments may join the study and will be assigned to a study cohort (group):

  • Group 1 - Health Canada approved/marketed drug(s) used on or off-label as Standard of Care (SOC)
  • Group 2 - Drugs accessed from Special Access Program (SAP)
  • Group 3 - Non-marketed investigational agents

Under the UNIQUE framework, data from participants will be evaluated. The following data will be collected:

  • Demographic data (for example: sex, race, month and year of birth)
  • Medical history
  • Cancer characteristics including biomarkers
  • Treatment history
  • response to treatment

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients have advanced and rare cancer with limited treatment options.

Description

Inclusion Criteria & Exclusion Criteria:

Patient's existing genomic information from tumor molecular profiling will be discussed in the hospital expert molecular tumor board rounds consisting of representatives from specialist genomic profiling and medical oncology departments to decide N of 1 treatment for the patient. The discussion will surround the best next therapeutic option in the patient's cancer subtype with or without clear standard of care guidelines. Therefore, specific eligibility criteria aside from individual patient's medical history is not applicable.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Group 1
N-of-1 treatment with marketed drugs used on or off-label as per SOC.
Treatment will be decided specifically for the patient based on biomarker test results.
Group 2
N-of-1 treatment with drugs accessed from SAP.
Treatment will be decided specifically for the patient based on biomarker test results.
Group 3
N-of-1 treatment with non-marketed investigational agents.
Treatment will be decided specifically for the patient based on biomarker test results.
