Blood test could reveal how melanoma changes during treatment

NCT ID NCT02133222

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 22 people with advanced (Stage IV) melanoma to see if DNA floating in their blood could show genetic changes in their cancer before and after chemotherapy. Researchers compared the DNA found in blood samples with the original tumor's genetics. The goal was to learn how tumors evolve during treatment, not to test a new therapy.
