Blood test to find leftover cancer after treatment
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Kidney & urinary, Lungs & breathing, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a blood test to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after you finish treatment. It may help doctors know if cancer is still there and guide next steps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with cancer (a biopsy or other test confirmed it).
- You are about to start or have already finished treatment meant to cure the cancer, like surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
- Your treatment was completed within the last 12 months.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You do not have another active cancer (except for some skin cancers or cervical pre-cancer).

This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
This trial uses a special blood test to track cancer signals (called ctDNA) during and after treatment for early breast cancer. It aims to see whether monitoring these signals can help guide follow-up and treatment decisions.
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
This study looks for tiny bits of cancer DNA in your blood after breast cancer surgery. A blood test called NGS may help doctors find early signs of cancer coming back, and you would give samples and have checkups for 3 years.
This study examines tiny particles in your blood from breast cancer cells to better predict which treatments will work best for you. Researchers will collect blood samples and a small tissue sample to understand your cancer's characteristics and help doctors choose more effective therapy.
This trial uses a simple blood test to look for leftover cancer DNA in people with triple-negative breast cancer who still have disease after chemotherapy and surgery. It aims to catch any early signs of the cancer coming back.
