NCI Precision Medicine Trials
Newer approaches employing combinations of targeted therapy, or targeted therapy with standard therapies, need to be considered. The NCI embarked on three second-generation precision medicine trials to address this need: ComboMATCH, iMATCH, and myeloMATCH. The design of these trials and necessary infrastructure are discussed in the following perspective.
