the laboratory must agree to enter the
results into the informatics system that
assigns treatment in NCI-ComboMATCH
(MATCHbox).
Æ Laboratories must have a way to
answer questions from NCIComboMATCH sites about their assay
and must have a contact person for
optimal communication with the NCIComboMATCH team.
• Prior to participation, laboratories
must enter into a collaboration
agreement with NCI. A sample
agreement is available upon request. As
part of such a collaboration agreement,
laboratories must agree to provide the
licensing rights described in the CTEP
IP Option to the Pharmaceutical
Collaborators who provided agents for
the NCI-ComboMATCH trial (https://
ctep.cancer.gov/branches/rab/
intellectual_property_option_to_
collaborators.htm) as well as agree to
the data sharing and publication rights
consistent with those agreements.
• No reimbursement for these
activities (testing or notification of sites
of NCI-ComboMATCH eligibility) exists.
Qualified laboratories serving
underserved populations are
encouraged to participate. How to
apply:
1. Submit letter of interest (LOI) as
described above under ‘‘Letter of
Interest and Confidentiality Agreement’’
to NCICOMBOMATCHLabApps@
nih.gov.
2. LOIs will be accepted for 3 months
from the date of this notice. LOIs will
be reviewed immediately upon receipt.
3. Notification of acceptance, nonacceptance or questions from Steering
Committee will be sent to the
designated contact person as soon as the
LOI has been reviewed. This
notification will include further
instructions if a full application is
invited.
4. Applications that have not been
submitted within 6 weeks of notification
of acceptance of the LOI will be deactivated and not further considered.
5. DO NOT send a full application
until you are invited to do so.
Review criteria for LOI:
Laboratory is a CLIA-certified
laboratory within the United States.
Academic laboratories must have NCIComboMATCH open at their site.
Laboratory NGS assay has adequate
sensitivity and specificity.
Laboratory tests tumor tissue for
variants as described in NCIComboMATCH.
Laboratory agrees to provide needed
information for evaluation of the
analytical validity of the test.

Laboratory is likely to screen at least
200 patients at NCTN sites per month
for NCI-ComboMATCH.
Laboratory agrees to contact sites
regarding NCI-ComboMATCH
eligibility.
Laboratory agrees to a collaboration
with NCI as detailed above.
Review criteria for full application:
Laboratory supplies evidence that the
assay meets analytical requirements as
detailed above.
Laboratories are capable of contacting
clinical sites, tracking activity, and
screening at least 200 patients at NCTN
sites per month to the study based on
detection of potential variants.
Laboratories agree to execute a
collaboration agreement with NCI, as
well as to data sharing and sharing
publication rights.
Laboratories agree to abide by the
procedures in place for the NCIComboMATCH study and to collaborate
fully with the NCI-ComboMATCH team.

Notice.
The National Cancer Institute
(NCI) through its National Clinical
Trials Network (NCTN) is developing a
successor precision medicine trial to
‘NCI-Molecular Analysis for Therapy
Choice (NCI–MATCH)’ entitled ‘NCIComboMATCH’. The principal of this
intiative is to overcome drug resistance
to single-agent therapy by developing
genomically-directed targeted agent
combinations. All combinations must be
supported by robust, preclinical in vivo
evidence.
NCI-ComboMATCH trial leadership
invites applications for Clinical
Laboratory Improvements Program
(CLIA) certified/accredited laboratories
that test tumor specimens from pediatric
patients utilizing Next-Generation
Sequencing (NGS) assays to participate
in the NCI-ComboMATCH trial. In order
to support this trial, the designated
laboratories participating in NCIComboMATCH will identify pediatric
patients for the specific variants needed
for trial eligibility. Laboratories will be
