⚡️ Systematic review on ctDNA in urothelial bladder cancer: plasma and urine liquid biopsy as diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive tools across all disease stages. ctDNA shows consistent prognostic value. Standardization of thresholds and platforms remains the key barrier to routine clinical use. euoncology.europeanurology.c… #BladderCancer @EurUrolOncol

I have been playing around with this trials finder a little and so far, I am impressed. We must find a better way to make it easier for physicians and other providers, as well as patients, to find trials and this is certainly a step in that direction. Check it out!
I am committed to reducing administrative burdens related to cancer clinical trials. NCI SBIR-funded @theMedNet is helping with TrialMatch, a new AI-assisted tool that makes it faster and easier for doctors to find trials for their patients. go.nih.gov/uA0Cyg2
