Filter by:Improving personalized cancer treatments and finding the best strategies to treat each patient relies on using new diagnostic technologies. Currently, for colorectal cancer, the methods used to decide who gets additional post-surgery treatment are suboptimal. Some patients get too much treatment, while others do not get enough. There is a new way to explore if there is any cancer left in a patient's body using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detected in blood samples. This can help decide who needs more treatment after surgery. Even though many tests have been developed, it has yet to be determined which test performs best at relevant time points. The GUIDE.MRD consortium is a group of experts, including scientists, technology, and pharmaceutical companies. The consortium is working on creating a reliable standard for the ctDNA tests, validating their clinical utility, and collecting data to help decide on the best treatment for each patient. FRENCH-MRD-CRC is the French study of the european GUIDE.MRD project.
The overall objective of this GUIDE.MRD consortium is to confirm that ctDNA detected after curative intended treatment for PDAC is a marker of residual disease and for risk-of-recurrence, and applicable in clinical practice. Primary objective To confirm that ctDNA analyses performed after PDAC treatment can identify patients with a high risk-of-recurrence. Specifically, the investigators want to determine the association between disease-free survival (DFS) and ctDNA detection status after 1. curative-intended surgery and 2. adjuvant chemotherapy. FRENCH.MRD.PDAC is the French study of the european GUIDE.MRD project

The Jinling Cohort is a prospective, multicenter cohort study in which 15,000 eligible individuals aged 45-75 in Nanjing China will be enrolled.
Robust detection of single molecules in complex biological fluids is the ultimate goal in the field of disease biomarker analysis. Conventionally, to enable the quantitative analysis of individual molecules in macroscopic volumes, analyte pre-concentration and sample partitioning into fL-nL compartments has been combined with the amplification of the specific recognition events. In these setups, the positive or negative detection of fluorescence signal is triggered by enzymatic reactions occurring in each compartment. Binary readout based on Poisson statistics quantifies ultra-low concentrations of analyte molecules. This approach has been adopted for nucleic acids analysis in current digital PCR, and is also available for proteins in a technique coined as digital ELISA. The objective of VerSiLiB is to develop an enzyme-free amplification strategy for the analysis of both protein and nucleic acid analytes with the single digital platform that offers means to access additional information on target analytes not achievable with current technologies. Method is based on novel affinity-mediated-transport amplification, where affinity interaction of target analyte with a specific ligand attached to a magnetic nanoparticle transporter is accompanied with rapid shuttling of fluorescent tracers that serve as reporters. By applying external magnetic field, tracers are transported from the tracer storage side (where they are dark) to tracer active side (where they become bright) only if target analyte is present in the small reaction compartment. Tailored plasmonic nanostructures will be prepared at the storage and active sides of the compartment to render the tracer either dark or bright. The aim is to perform technology validation for the novel VerSiLiB proteogenomics amplification platform in cancer management using biobanked liquid biopsy samples.
Based on the evidence summarized in the introduction, the clinician hypothesize that the detection of the presence and expression of HPV-DNA, certain miRNAs, and a certain mutational profile in the tissues and biological fluids of these patients, may have important prognostic and diagnostic value not only in HPV-related OPSCCs but also in HPV+ occult T. Accordingly, this study aims to aim to better characterize their potential as biomarkers and to detect the possibility of their their use to implement the sensitivity and specificity of radiological methodologies (PET-CT and MRI), already in use in clinical practice, for monitoring disease progression in this specific subgroup. Finally, by using the collected material to generate organoids and Patient Derived Xenograft (PDX), the study also aims to identify possible new molecular drugs, which could solve the problem of resistance to radiochemotherapy.
The goal of this Interventional study aims to apply, in our Institutes, a 4p oncological model i.e. predictive, personalized, of precision and participated (Regina Elena and San Gallicano).
The goal of this prospective clinical trial is to identify a predictive biomarker in patients with advanced HCC (stage B and C) using a combinatorial approach of the liquid biopsy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is multi-omic liquid biopsy approach able to identify a strong predictive biomarker of immunotherapy efficiency? - Is there a correlation between tissue biopsy (PD-L1 tissue level of expression) and liquid biopsy (detection of CTC expressing PD-L1) in HCC patients? Participants blood will be collected at several time points.
