Blood test guides precision strikes against lingering lung cancer

NCT ID NCT05429320

Summary

This study tested a new strategy for controlling advanced lung cancer that has spread. It aimed to see if using a sensitive blood test to detect tiny amounts of leftover cancer could guide doctors to use targeted radiation or surgery on the remaining tumors. The goal was to see if this approach could lower the cancer levels in the blood and help patients live longer without their cancer getting worse, compared to just continuing with standard drug therapy.
