Brief summary
PROMISE is a multi-center, prospective and proof of concept study aimed to evaluate the performance of 3 prototype assays of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) mutation, cfDNA methylation and microRNA (miRNA) expression in early detection of multi-cancer. Assay(s) will be selected for further development. The study will enroll approximately 2035 participants, including participants with cancers and healthy participants.
Detailed description
Blood samples will be prospectively collected from cancer patients and non-cancer individuals. Targeted cell-free DNA (cfDNA) methylation panel of \ 490,000 CpG sites, a 168-gene mutation panel and 16 proteins will be applied. Participants will be stratified by age and clinical status and split into the training and the testing sets. The multi-cancer detection blood test models were developed on training set and validated on testing set.
