Overview
Brief Summary
This is a prospective study addressing the challenge of predicting disease progression and/or recurrence in patients diagnosed with metastatic colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy.
Detailed Description
This research study is evaluating how patient-reported outcomes (e.g. symptoms, quality of life) and biomarkers compare to standard of care clinical assessments such as imaging and tumor markers in predicting the clinical outcomes (e.g. disease progression and survival) in patient populations with colorectal, pancreatobiliary, or esophagogastric cancer that are receiving anti-cancer therapy Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center * Patient reported outcomes will be collected through a series of self-administered questionnaires and blood draws will be used to obtain bio and tumor marker information. * Information will also be collected from the participants electronic medical record. * Tissue may be obtained for next-generation sequencing. * The study will conclude after participants are no longer receiving anti-cancer therapies. * It is expected that about 200 people will take part in this research study

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Treatment Response at 1st Scan
Time Frame: 6 months
The primary outcome is treatment response (RECIST 1.1) at first scan (\>1 month post-treatment start). Both response status (PR vs SD or PD \[including death\]) and clinical benefit status (PR or SD vs PD \[including death\]) will be examined. Primary analyses will compare one month change from baseline in tumor markers, MAF of the selected clonal mutation in ctDNA, and PROs (symptoms, mood, and QOL) individually and a composite score in predicting response and clinical benefit (CB) at first scan.
Secondary Outcomes
- Progression Free Survival - KMC(1 year)
- Progression Free Survival - HR(1 year)
- ROC Curves(1 year)
- PROs and Biomarkers as predictor of survival using cox proportional hazards model(6 months)
- Association between baseline PROs, biomarkers and tumor response(6 months)
- Treatment Response at 1st Scan - Continuous Outcome(6 months)
- Overall Survival - KMC(1 year)
- Overall Survival - HR(1 year)
- Associations between baseline PROs, biomarkers, and 6-month survival outcomes(6 months)
- Sarcopenia Analysis(1 year)
- Skeletal Muscle Analyses(1 year)
