Brief summary
The INNOVA project aims to create an advanced multidisciplinary diagnostic platform to support the Italian healthcare system and translational research. In this context, WP7, coordinated by the Pascale Institute and the focus of this study protocol, is responsible for developing a national platform for the multi-omic profiling of cancer patients eligible for precision medicine treatments, with the goal of supporting clinical decision-making.
Detailed description
The study is multicentric, observational, non-interventional, and both prospective and retrospective.
Interventions
To assess the impact of intratumoral heterogeneity on the effectiveness of targeted therapies and immunotherapy.
