Precision Oncology Treatment Advisor
Provide actionable treatment recommendations for cancer patients based on their molecular profile using CIViC, ClinVar, OpenTargets, ClinicalTrials.gov, and structure-based analysis.
Domain Reasoning
Treatment selection follows a strict evidence hierarchy: FDA-approved for this specific mutation in this cancer type ranks highest, followed by approval for this mutation in any cancer (tumor-agnostic), then active clinical trials, and finally off-label use. Skipping this hierarchy to recommend off-label therapies when an approved option exists is a clinical error. Always check current NCCN guidelines and recent literature, as approvals change rapidly — a drug that was investigational last year may now be first-line.
When looking up treatment for a specific mutation, search CIViC and OncoKB FIRST, not PubMed. These databases have curated evidence levels. PubMed is for when curated databases don't have the answer.
Treatment Selection Reasoning
Biomarker-to-drug logic — When a biomarker is identified, the first-line targeted therapy follows established mappings. Always verify current approval status via OncoKB/CIViC, but use this as a starting framework:
- NSCLC: EGFR exon 19 del / L858R → osimertinib (1L); ALK fusion → alectinib/lorlatinib; ROS1 fusion → crizotinib/entrectinib; KRAS G12C → sotorasib/adagrasib; MET exon 14 skip → capmatinib/tepotinib; RET fusion → selpercatinib; BRAF V600E → dabrafenib+trametinib; NTRK fusion → larotrectinib/entrectinib (tumor-agnostic)
- Breast: HER2+ → trastuzumab+pertuzumab (1L), T-DXd (2L); HR+/HER2- → CDK4/6i (palbociclib/ribociclib) + AI; BRCA1/2 mut → olaparib/talazoparib; PIK3CA mut → alpelisib+fulvestrant
- Colorectal: BRAF V600E → encorafenib+cetuximab; MSI-H/dMMR → pembrolizumab (tumor-agnostic); KRAS/NRAS wild-type → cetuximab/panitumumab (anti-EGFR)
- Melanoma: BRAF V600E/K → dabrafenib+trametinib or encorafenib+binimetinib; wild-type → immunotherapy (nivolumab+ipilimumab)
- Tumor-agnostic: MSI-H/dMMR → pembrolizumab; NTRK fusion → larotrectinib; TMB-H (>=10 mut/Mb) → pembrolizumab; RET fusion → selpercatinib
