Novel blood test detects lung cancer traces long before scans

Despite advances in early-stage lung cancer treatment, a significant number of patients experience disease recurrence after surgery or initial therapy. A study has now demonstrated that a blood test (liquid biopsy) can reliably ...

Study on circulating tumor DNA shows clear benefits

After surgery for colon cancer, many patients face the question of whether follow-up chemotherapy is necessary to prevent a possible relapse. The decision is particularly difficult in so-called Stage II, the intermediate-risk ...

Blood test detects early signs of breast cancer recurrence
