- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The main endpoint is determining the percentage of patients with clinically<br /><br>actionable genetic alterations. These alterations are defined as (1) a<br /><br>pathogenic variant that is target of an approved drug in any cancer indication<br /><br>or predicts sensitivity to an approved drug in any cancer indication (e.g. MSI<br /><br>and pembrolizumab), (2) a pathogenic variant that is in the same pathway as a<br /><br>variant that is the target of an approved drug in any cancer indication or (3)<br /><br>a pathogenic variant that has compelling clinical or biological evidence<br /><br>supporting being predictive of response to a drug in PDAC. Clinically<br /><br>actionable mutations are selected using the OncoKB database52 and scientific<br /><br>literature. </p><br>
