Blood test could replace invasive cancer tracking

NCT ID NCT00213798

Summary

This study investigated whether a simple blood test could monitor lung cancer progression without needing repeated tumor biopsies. Researchers followed 200 lung cancer patients to see if genetic markers in their blood matched their tumor's genetic changes. The goal was to develop a less invasive way to track how cancer responds to treatment over time.
