What this trial studies

XCELSIOR is a non-interventional data registry focused on collecting and analyzing information about cancer treatments, decisions, and patient outcomes. It operates through a virtual tumor board that reviews patient data and generates personalized treatment options based on expert judgment and artificial intelligence. Patients enroll via the Cancer Commons Web portal, consenting to have their medical information reviewed and tracked for safety and efficacy outcomes. This observational study aims to improve treatment strategies for patients with advanced cancers like glioblastoma and pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include both male and female patients with known or suspected advanced or recalcitrant cancers.

Not a fit: Patients who are not residents of the United States or its territories will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this platform could provide tailored treatment options and improve outcomes for patients with advanced cancer.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies utilizing patient-centric registries and virtual tumor boards have shown promise in improving treatment outcomes, suggesting this approach may be effective.
