Subject may not have started neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, neo-adjuvant radiation therapy, immunotherapy or other treatment and/or surgery prior to blood sample collection. 4. Less than 3 days between fine needle aspiration (FNA) of target pathology and blood collection. 5. Less than 7 days between biopsy (other than FNA) of target pathology and blood collection. 6. IV contrast (e.g., CT and MRI) within 1 day [or 24 hours] prior to blood collection. 7.
