Blood test to find and monitor heart masses
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a blood test (liquid biopsy) to help find and monitor heart masses without surgery. It may help diagnose what the mass is and how it changes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 12 years old or older
- You have a heart mass that may be cancer or another type, based on standard tests
- You understand and can sign a consent form

This trial uses a special device to take a small blood sample from your heart arteries during a planned procedure. It aims to find unique markers that could help doctors better understand and treat coronary artery disease.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test (called liquid biopsy) can help monitor how well your cancer treatment is working. By checking for tumor DNA in your blood before and during treatment, researchers hope to see if the treatment is effective and if the cancer is responding, which could help guide your care.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can help doctors tell if a kidney mass is cancer before surgery. It aims to improve how kidney masses are classified and guide treatment decisions.
This study is testing whether a simple blood test (called ctDNA-MRD) can help guide treatment for people with advanced lung cancer that has not spread far. You would receive chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery, and the blood test may help doctors understand how well the treatment is working.
This study checks how special lab tests on heart tissue samples can help guide diagnosis and treatment for people with a heart transplant. You may be eligible if you already need a heart tissue biopsy for a clinical reason and can provide consent.
