Renal Cancer Detection With Liquid Biopsy

Recruiting
Conditions
Renal Cancer
Oncocytoma
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: GaGnostic
Registration Number
NCT05060783
Lead Sponsor
Zealand University Hospital
Brief Summary

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) were significantly altered in localized as well advanced RCC compared to healthy samples. In addition, GAG scores correlated with progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) in a prospective cohort of patients with metastatic ccRCC and localized RCC. However, it is still unknown whether alterations in plasma and urine GAGs are exquisitely specific to RCC or are shared by other benign lesions in the kidney, such as angiomyolipomas, oncocytomas, or PEComa.
