Pilot study evaluating different methods of circulating tumor DNA quantification in radiation oncology patients

Study on Detecting Cancer DNA in Blood and Urine

Recruiting
18 years and older
All
Phase N/A
  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study investigates a new test that aims to detect small pieces of cancer DNA in blood and urine. Cancer DNA, or ctDNA, refers to the genetic material released by cancer cells into the bloodstream. This study looks to improve the detection of ctDNA compared to current methods.

Participants in the study will undergo different procedures to compare ctDNA detection approaches. The study will collect data on how well these methods work in identifying cancer DNA from blood and urine samples.

  • Who can participate: Adults who plan to undergo radiation therapy can participate. Individuals who are dependent on dialysis are not eligible.
  • Study details: Participants will provide blood and urine samples for the study. These samples will be used to test different methods of detecting cancer DNA, also known as circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
