early screening of colorectal cancer based on plasma multi-omics combining with artificial intelligence

Conditions: Colorectal Adenoma; Colorectal Cancer

Summary: to evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of a novel screening method based on plasma multi-omics combining with artificial intelligence in a large prospective cohort for the detection of colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas.

minimally invasive detection of circulating tumor dna (ctdna) in peripheral blood of patients with colorectal malignancies via liquid biopsy has emerged as a promising biomarker. this is urgently needed, as conventional imaging and plasma protein-derived biomarkers lack sensitivity and specificity.the goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and accuracy of a novel screening method based on plasma multi-omics combining with artificial intelligence in five hospitals around china for the detection of colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas.
