Circulating Tumor Dna Liquid Biopsy Bone Or Soft Tissue Sarcoma

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called LCI-SAR-BSTS-CTDNA-001, is exploring how well a special test can find small pieces of cancer DNA in the blood of patients with bone or soft tissue sarcoma, which is a type of cancer. The test being studied is called Low Pass Whole Genome Sequencing (LP-WGS). Researchers hope that by detecting this circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), they can learn more about the cancer and how to treat it effectively.

The trial is open to individuals of all ages, including children, who may have a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of sarcoma. This includes patients with a suspected tumor that doctors believe could be sarcoma, those preparing for surgery on a suspected lipomatous mass, or those already diagnosed with sarcoma, whether or not it has spread. If you choose to participate, you will be asked to give consent and provide some personal health information. This trial is not yet recruiting, so there is time to learn more before deciding to participate.
