Blood test for early detection of multiple cancers (PROFOUND)
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study is testing a new blood test that may help find multiple types of cancer early. It compares blood samples from people with newly diagnosed cancer to those without cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 40 and 74 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with cancer (for the case group) or you have not been diagnosed with cancer (for the control group).

This study tests whether a new blood test can detect multiple types of cancer early by analyzing DNA fragments in your blood. Researchers are enrolling people recently diagnosed with cancer (before treatment starts) and people without cancer to develop and validate this detection method.
This study is testing a new blood test to help doctors find cancer earlier. If you are 45 or older and have symptoms that might be cancer, or were recently diagnosed with cancer, you may be able to join.
This trial checks whether a blood test can detect early signs of multiple cancers in people who feel well. It may help find cancer earlier, when treatment is more likely to work.
This trial studies whether a blood-based test can help detect pancreatic cancer (or strong signs of it) earlier than usual. The goal is to see how well “liquid biopsy” results match real diagnoses and risk levels.
This study tests a blood test that looks for signs of cancer early in people without symptoms. It aims to see how well the test works in real-world settings.
This trial tests a blood test that looks for chemical changes in DNA to help diagnose breast cancer. It may offer a simpler way to detect cancer without needing a tissue sample.
