“Revolutionizing cancer drug development: Harnessing the potential of basket trials –

The landscape of cancer therapy has been transformed by advances in clinical next-generation sequencing, genomically targeted therapies and immunotherapies.

Basket trials have emerged as one of the efficient modern clinical trial designs that evaluate the efficacy of these therapies across multiple cancer types based on specific molecular alterations or biomarkers, irrespective of histology or anatomic location.

This review delves into the evolution of basket trials in cancer drug development, highlighting their potential prospects and current obstacles.”
