Brief summary

Exploratory study on blood-borne biological markers and their correlation with clinical and pathological characteristics.

Detailed description

Exploratory multi-cohort study including different types of cancer (different organs and/or different histological types). Each kind of blood-borne biological markers analyses corresponds to a cohort.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALBlood sampling

Up to 5 blood samplings can be performed at different time points

One tumor sampling can be performed, if applicable

OTHERStool sampling

Up to 5 blood samplings can be performed at different time points

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Feasibility of the analysis of different blood-borne tumor biomarkers18 monthsSuccess rate of the tested detection techniques. The success rate of a given detection technique is calculated by the ratio detection success / number of screened patients .

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Correlation with biological and clinical data18 monthsNumber of biological analysis results correlated to clinical data. Establishment of a proof of concept
