Exosome blood test could spot ovarian cancer return when standard tests fail

NCT ID NCT07153705

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new blood test called OCS that uses exosome technology to monitor for ovarian cancer recurrence. It focuses on patients whose CA125 levels were normal before initial treatment, making standard monitoring difficult. The trial will enroll 32 women with stage I-IV ovarian cancer who have completed surgery and chemotherapy.

Active substance

OCS exosome detection test

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a reliable way to detect ovarian cancer recurrence early in patients whose standard CA125 test is not informative.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study with only 32 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The test is experimental and not yet proven to be better than current methods.
