Testing for DNA Shed from Colon Cancers into Bloodstream Guides Chemotherapy After Surgery
A new research study has shown that circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) - genetic material shed from tumors into the bloodstream - can identify colon cancer patients who can most benefit from chemotherapy following surgery and spare other patients the need for this form of treatment. More...06 Jun 2022
Non-Invasive Tests for Diagnosing Liver Diseases Could Shape Future Clinical Care
Recent studies have focused on exploring non-invasive tests for NAFLD, NASH, and fibrosis, for clinical applications. Now, researchers have collated recent developments in NAFLD assessment and analyzed the benefits and limitations of the new methods in a review made available online. More...03 Jun 2022
Results of Alzheimer’s Disease Blood Tests Are Skewed by Unrelated Chronic Conditions
The affect of chronic medical conditions such as chronic kidney disease on circulating levels of phosphorylated tau proteins (p-tau) must be evaluated before a p-tau blood test can be used for diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. More...02 Jun 2022
Liquid Biopsy Predicts Success of ICI Treatment in Lung Cancer Patients
Compared to an invasive tumor biopsy procedure, an extracellular vesicle-based liquid biopsy method was shown to better predict treatment response and survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who were undergoing treatment with immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). More...02 Jun 2022
