Brief Summary

The goal of this observational research study is to establish a registry of information regarding how different physicians treat and manage patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Objectives:

1. 1.To describe variation in management of patients with GIST, overall and by patient and provider characteristics.
2. 2.To provide participating physicians with information regarding management of their patients with GIST compared to the aggregate experience of all physicians participating in the Registry.
