Summary
This study is looking for 400 adults in Portugal, aged 40 to 74, who have recently been diagnosed with colorectal cancer but haven't started treatment yet. Researchers want to see if analyzing the bacteria in a person's stool can help detect cancer earlier and predict outcomes. The goal is to create a simple, non-invasive test that could reduce the need for colonoscopies and improve survival rates.
