Scientists hunt for hidden clues to stop prostate cancer treatment failures

NCT ID NCT04662996

Summary

This study aimed to find biological markers that could predict whether a patient's advanced prostate cancer would respond to specific treatments. Researchers analyzed tiny molecules called microRNAs in blood and tissue samples from 33 patients. The goal was to help doctors choose the most effective treatment right away, since 30-50% of patients currently don't benefit from their first treatment choice.
