ctDNA for Early Detection of Recurrence in Melanoma
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
This study examines circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a biomarker for early detection of recurrence in high-risk patients, following treatment of primary melanoma. The hypothesis is that ctDNA can provide accurate detection of recurrence or metastasis, at the time of or earlier than current methods, leading to improved management and hopefully prognosis, based on earlier detection.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Sensitivity of ctDNA for detection of metastatic disease — From enrollment to end of 5-year follow-up
By analyzing blood samples of patients diagnosed with recurrence, we will establish the ability of ctDNA to detect known recurrence, and therefore be able to establish the sensitivity of the method. - Specificity of ctDNA for detection of metastatic disease — From enrollment to end of 5-year follow-up
By assuming no ctDNA in healthy individuals and analyzing WBC from buffy-coat to correct for wild-type mutated DNA due to CHIP, we will be able to establish the specificity of the method.
