Blood test may catch cancer return sooner, boosting cure chances
NCT ID NCT04084249
First seen May 20, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026
Summary
This study compares two ways of monitoring colorectal cancer patients after surgery: standard CT scans versus a new approach that also uses a blood test (ctDNA) to find cancer DNA. The goal is to see if the blood test helps detect cancer recurrence earlier and allows more patients to have surgery to remove it. About 359 people with stage II or III colorectal cancer are taking part.
