Blood-based Liquid Biopsy Test Accurately Detects More Than Fifty Types of Cancer

Results from a clinical study confirmed that a noninvasive liquid biopsy-based blood test could accurately detect more than 50 types of cancer and could be used as a multi-cancer screening test among individuals at higher risk of the disease, including asymptomatic individuals aged 50 years or older.

Circulating Tumor DNA Following Surgery Predicts Bladder Cancer Recurrence

A blood test that detects circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) predicts risk of bladder cancer recurrence following surgery and can be used to guide precision treatment of the disease. More...

A Nanowire-based Liquid Biopsy Method for Detection of Tumors of the Central Nervous System

Researchers have developed a sterilizable nanowire-based device that can efficiently extract urinary microRNAs (miRNAs) and used it as the basis of a liquid biopsy method to detect tumors of the central nervous system (CNS). More...

The OncoMasTR Test Accurately Identifies Risk of Breast Cancer Recurrence

A recent paper confirmed that the Oncomark (Dublin, Ireland) OncoMasTR test can accurately identify the risk for disease recurrence in patients with hormone receptor–positive HER2-negative early-stage breast cancer. More...

Highly Sensitive Molecular Test Detects Cases of Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection spread through inhaling tiny droplets from the coughs or sneezes of an infected person. It mainly affects the lungs, but it can affect any part of the body, including the tummy (abdomen), glands, bones and nervous system. More...

Serum Thrombospondin 2 Identified as Biomarker for Patients at Risk of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Serum levels of the glycoprotein thrombospondin 2 (TSP-2) were shown to be a useful biomarker for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and advanced fibrosis diagnosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. More...

Genetic Variants Associated with Unexplained Sudden Cardiac Death

As many as 450,000 Americans die every year from a sudden, fatal heart condition, and in slightly more than one in ten cases the cause remains unexplained even after an autopsy. Most sudden cardiac deaths are caused by abnormal heart rhythms called arrhythmias and the most common life-threatening arrhythmia is ventricular fibrillation. More...
