CancerSEEK: A New Way to Detect Deadly Cancers Early
A team of researchers from the University of Cambridge has developed such a test, called CancerSEEK. The test works by measuring the levels of eight proteins and the presence of mutations in 16 genes in the blood. These proteins and genes are known to be associated with cancer development and progression. By combining these biomarkers, the test can detect the presence of cancer cells in the blood and also indicate the type and location of the tumor.
