Liquid biopsy test for Lynch syndrome cancer patients
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a simple blood test to measure tumor DNA in people with Lynch syndrome who have been newly diagnosed with cancer but haven't started treatment yet. It aims to see if this test can help monitor the cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years old or older
- You have been diagnosed with cancer but have not started treatment yet
- You are willing to give extra blood samples for the study

This study follows adults with Lynch syndrome (an inherited gene change) using regular questionnaires and tracking health over time. It may help researchers understand how the condition progresses and improve care for people with these gene mutations.
This study tests whether a simple blood sample from your finger can detect tumor DNA as well as a standard blood draw. It is designed for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and hasn't responded to treatment.
This trial tests whether a simple blood test or tumor tissue test can help identify Lynch syndrome, a genetic condition that raises the risk of colorectal cancer, in people who already have colon cancer. If you are eligible, the study will compare different screening methods to see which work best in Vietnam.
This study tests whether a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy) can safely replace some invasive cancer screening procedures for people with Lynch syndrome. It aims to find cancer early with less discomfort.
This study collects blood and stool samples to see how well they can detect colorectal cancer or advanced growths in people with Lynch syndrome (an inherited colon cancer risk) or suspected Lynch syndrome. It may help find cancer or precancer earlier, which can improve next-step decisions.
This study checks tumor tissue from colorectal cancer surgery for signs of Lynch syndrome, a genetic condition that increases cancer risk. If found, you can get genetic counseling to help you and your family.
