First seen Feb 23, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study is testing whether a blood test that looks for tiny bits of tumor DNA (called ctDNA) can find cancer early after treatment. Researchers will follow about 100 people with different solid tumors (like breast, lung, or colon cancer) to see if the test spots signs of cancer before scans do. The goal is to help doctors act sooner and improve outcomes.
