NCT ID NCT02304978

First seen Jan 06, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study looked at whether a protein called tissue factor (TF) in the blood can help predict how serious colorectal cancer is and if it might come back. Researchers measured TF levels in 26 adults before and after surgery to remove their tumors. The goal was to see if higher TF levels are linked to more aggressive cancer and if levels drop after surgery, which could help guide treatment decisions in the future.
