Brief Summary
This trial screens patients with colon or rectal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) for genetic mutations for recommendation to a molecularly assigned therapy. Identifying gene mutations may help patients enroll onto target companion trials that target these mutations.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
The Proportion of Patients Who Have an Actionable Genomic Profile
This is defined as a patient who received a trial recommendation per the COLOMATE companion trial recommendation form. Will be presented as a point estimate along with a 95% confidence interval (by Wald asymptotic confidence limit).
6 months
Companion Trial Enrollment
This is defined as a patient who has an actionable genomic profile that enrolls in their recommended companion trial. Will be presented as a point estimate along with a 95% confidence interval (by Wald asymptotic confidence limit).
3.5 years
Study Arms (1)
Screening (genetic testing)
Patients submit blood samples for genetic testing.
Interventions
Undergo genetic testing
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum that is metastatic and/ or unresectable
You may qualify if:
- Histological confirmation of adenocarcinoma of the colon or rectum that is metastatic and/ or unresectable
- Progression, intolerance, or contraindication to a fluoropyrimidine (e.g., 5- fluorouracil or capecitabine), oxaliplatin, irinotecan, an anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody (bevacizumab, ziv-aflibercept, or ramucirumab), and an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody (nivolumab or pembrolizumab) if tumor has deficient mismatch repair proteins (dMMR) or is microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H)
- For patients with KRAS and NRAS wild-type tumors, progression, intolerance, or contraindication to an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody (cetuximab or panitumumab)
- Note: If tissue is known to be positive for HER2 expression (IHC 3+) or the tumor has ERBB2 (HER2) amplification detected by a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA)-certified assay, prior treatment with anti-EGFR therapy is not required
- At least one site of disease that is measurable by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria (version 1.1) that has not been previously irradiated; if the patient has had previous radiation to the target lesion(s), there must be evidence of progression since the radiation
- Life expectancy \>= 3 months per estimation of investigator
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) 0, 1, or 2
- Capable of understanding and complying with the protocol requirements and has signed the informed consent document
- Satisfy at least one of the following two conditions:
- Willing and able to provide blood sample for screening purposes
- Guardant 360 testing completed =\< 60 days prior to registration
You may not qualify if:
- Evidence within the last 3 years of another malignancy which required systemic treatment. EXCEPTIONS: Non-melanotic skin cancer, carcinoma-in-situ of the cervix, or localized prostate cancer with a current PSA of \< 1.0mg/dL on 2 successive evaluations, at least 90 days apart, with the most recent evaluation no more than 4 weeks prior to registration
- Unable or unwilling to abide by the study protocol or cooperate fully with the investigator or designee
- History of solid organ transplantation
- Pregnant or planning to become pregnant within the next 12 months
