The BEGIN Study by BostonGene and Exigent Genomic INsight evaluates the efficacy of comprehensive molecular testing in advanced cancer patients. Using the BostonGene Tumor Portrait test, the study aims to identify actionable findings, assess feasibility, and determine patient enrollment in clinical trials. Four cohorts of 100 patients each will be studied over two years, focusing on treatment decisions and patient outcomes. This study seeks to demonstrate the clinical utility of genomic testing in guiding therapy for advanced cancer patients in community settings.
