Analysis of blood tumor markers for cancer diagnosis and treatment monitoring

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study focuses on the analysis of circulating tumor markers found in the blood, aiming to replace traditional tissue biopsies with a simpler blood test known as liquid biopsy. It investigates the diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive potential of these biomarkers, particularly in response to various medical interventions such as chemotherapy and surgery. By utilizing small cohorts for different clinical situations, the study seeks to generate feasibility data and proof of concept, which could pave the way for larger studies in the future.
