Highly sensitive method captures rare RNAs in blood to search for disease

A method for examining RNAs in blood samples offers a clinical tool to detect and monitor cancer and to assess immune responses to vaccination. A method for examining RNAs in blood samples offers a clinical tool to detect and monitor cancer and to assess immune responses to vaccination.

A blood analysis that detects fragments of circulating tumor DNA could accurately anticipate the recurrence of melanoma, one of the most aggressive skin cancers, according to a new study led by researchers at NYU Langone Health Medical Center and its Perlmutter Cancer Center. The study, published in 'The Lancet Oncology ', showed that about 80% of patients with stage III melanoma who had detectable levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) before …

Blood test to predict tumor recurrence of advanced skin cancer called highly accurate

New York University researchers say a simple, gene-based blood test has shown to be highly accurate in predicting whether some stage III melanoma patients are likely to suffer recurrences of cancerous tumors.

Gene-based blood test for melanoma may catch early signs of cancer's return

Monitoring blood levels of DNA fragments shed by dying tumor cells may accurately predict skin cancer recurrence, a new study shows.

New blood test may predict skin cancer’s return before it shows up on scans

Researchers have developed a blood test that may help doctors detect if melanoma, a dangerous form of skin cancer, is coming back—possibly months before it would be visible on traditional scans. The test works by measuring tiny bits of DNA shed by tumor cells into the bloodstream, offering a new and less invasive way to […] The post New blood test may predict skin cancer’s return before it shows up on scans appeared first on Knowridge Science Re…
