Clinical trials

This trial is a multicenter, open-label, non-interventional controlled study to identify and characterize epigenetic signatures of lung cancer. The goal of this study is to develop a simple blood test that can detect lung cancer with high sensitivity, and assist in the early diagnosis and management of lung cancer. In particular, the ability to assist existing methods in cancer diagnostics, predict response to treatment, and assess the success of treatment during and after treatment will be examined. In addition, the ability to assess minimal residual disease (MRD) will be evaluated, by taking blood after surgery to remove a tumor or after treatment, and testing whether there is any residual DNA from the tumor using the markers that are found. The collection of patients and data will be conducted over a period of about a year and a half, with the aim of reaching approximately 300 participants, including patients with lung cancer before and after treatment/surgery and control groups.
