Liquid blood test to diagnose brain glioma
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial checks whether a special blood test can help identify glioma (a type of brain tumor) that is new or coming back. It may help doctors learn more about the tumor using blood, alongside the usual brain scans and planned surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (age 18 or older).
- You can sign written informed consent (agree to join).
- Your brain MRI shows a suspected glioma grade II or higher (not just grade I).
- Your care team has decided you are eligible for brain surgery, either a biopsy or tumor removal.
- Your neuro-oncology tumor board has decided on the biopsy or resection plan.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies newly diagnosed or progressing brain tumors (grade 2–4 gliomas) to better understand the disease using tumor tissue and blood samples. It may help doctors learn which treatments could work best for different tumor types by matching tumor material to blood results.
This study looks for genetic markers from tumor cells in your blood to see if they can help track glioblastoma progression. If you have glioblastoma and standard treatment has stopped working, this test might give your doctor more information about your cancer.
This trial is for people with glioma who have tumor tissue or blood samples stored. It uses artificial intelligence to analyze these samples and find the best treatment. You might be eligible if you are at least 18 years old and have had a glioma diagnosis with tissue available for study.
This study is looking at whether a simple blood test that checks for tiny molecules (called miRNAs) can help monitor people with slow-growing brain tumors. If you had surgery for a grade 2 or 3 glioma at Caen University Hospital and are still being followed there, this study might be for you.
This trial studies whether changes in RNA (the instructions inside cells) can help doctors better diagnose and treat gliomas, a type of brain tumor. If you are scheduled for surgery to remove a suspected glioma and have not had prior treatment, you may be able to join.
This trial studies whether a blood test can track the progress of a type of brain tumor called a grade 4 diffuse glioma. It may offer a less invasive way to monitor these tumors after surgery.
