Scientists hunt for clues in colon cancer and polyp tissues
NCT ID NCT05638542
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at genetic and molecular markers in tissue and stool samples from people with colon cancer, colon polyps, and healthy controls. Researchers aim to understand how these markers differ and how they relate to cancer development. The study involves 582 participants and uses advanced techniques to analyze DNA, proteins, and gut bacteria.
What this could mean
