Development and Validation of Metabolic Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Recurrence of Colorectal Cancer：MetBio-CRC
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Colorectal Cancer
In brief
This prospective clinical observational study aims to construct a metabolite database specifically for colorectal cancer patients using metabolomics technology. It seeks to develop and validate metabolic biomarkers for early diagnosis, prognosis, and prediction of recurrence and metastasis in colorectal cancer, thereby a establishing safe, convenient, and highly sensitive method for early screening and prognostic prediction.
