Trial Evaluating Blood Test for 10 Cancers Reaches Major Milestone

UNITED KINGDOM, JUL 30 – The Southampton-led Enlighten trial tests a blood protein screening that has shown high accuracy detecting 10 early-stage cancers in 450 patients so far.

  • A PRNewswire release noted the MODERNISED study in Southampton, England reported over 450 participants have joined to evaluate ENLIGHTEN's potential to detect ten cancers early.
  • Given current UK screening programmes, only four focus on single cancers, while around 385,000 new UK cancer diagnoses occur annually.
  • Professor Davies said that ENLIGHTEN measures coloured light signatures from proteins that can change even when cancers are too small to shed detectable DNA.
  • Early detection offers the benefit that `Detecting cancer early means that treatment can begin sooner, increasing the chances of successful outcomes for patients`, says Dr Victoria Goss, emphasizing the importance of timely diagnosis.
  • Led by the Southampton Clinical Trials Unit, recruitment continues to 1,000 patients and 350 volunteers for early cancer detection study.
