Scientists hunt clues in blood to outsmart cancer drug resistance

NCT ID NCT05272423

Summary

This study aims to learn why cancers with a specific KRAS mutation become resistant to targeted drugs. Up to 500 adults in the US whose cancer has progressed on these drugs will provide a blood sample or share their existing test results. Researchers will analyze these samples to identify the genetic changes that cause resistance, which could help doctors choose better treatments in the future.
