Summary
This study looks at whether a blood test can help doctors track how well throat cancer treatment is working and catch any return of the cancer early. Researchers will collect blood samples from 250 people with throat cancer in Scotland and analyze them for cancer DNA. The goal is to see if this simple test can give real-time information to guide treatment decisions, potentially reducing the need for unclear scans and invasive biopsies.
