What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sensitivity and specificity of early detection of 22 types of cancers and Tissue of origin (TOO) accuracy of a cfDNA methylation-based model, in combination with serum tumor markers

    Measured: 22 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Sensitivity and specificity of a cfDNA methylation-based model combined with serum tumor markers in participants with cancers or benign diseases

    Measured: 22 months

  2. Sensitivity and specificity of serum tumor markers, cfDNA methylation-based model, and a cfDNA methylation-based model combined with serum tumor markers, in participants with cancers and healthy participants

    Measured: 22 months

  3. Sensitivity and specificity of early detection of cancer in different stages

    Measured: 22 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cancer, run by Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jiachen Xu, M.D. (+86-010-87788029, XJCwelcome@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity and specificity of early detection of 22 types of cancers and Tissue of origin (TOO) accuracy of a cfDNA methylation-based model, in combination with serum tumor markers (time frame: 22 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Jun 2021.
