Clinical Trial
Search Toolkit

A step-by-step guide to finding, evaluating, and enrolling in clinical trials matched to your cancer type and molecular profile.

01
Gather Your Molecular Data

Collect your pathology report, genomic profiling results (FoundationOne, Tempus, Guardant), and any IHC/FISH results. Key data: cancer type, stage, mutations, TMB, MSI status, PD-L1.

02
Search ClinicalTrials.gov

Use advanced search filters: condition, intervention type, molecular markers, phase, and location. Focus on Phase II/III trials with your specific biomarker in the eligibility criteria.

03
Explore Molecular Matching Programs

Programs like NCI-MATCH, TAPUR, and My Cancer Genome match patients to trials based on molecular alterations — regardless of cancer type (tumor-agnostic).

04
Evaluate the Trial

Key questions: What phase is it? Is there a placebo arm? What are the eligibility criteria? What are the known side effects? Will travel be required? Is there a safety lead-in?

05
Connect with the Trial Team

Contact the trial coordinator listed on ClinicalTrials.gov. Ask about screening requirements, insurance coverage, and whether your current treatments affect eligibility.
