Discovery and validation of molecular biomarkers for colorectal adenomas and cancer with application to blood testing.

Discovery and validation of molecular biomarkers for colorectal adenomas and cancer with application to blood testing.

BACKGROUND & AIMS:Colorectal cancer incidence and deaths are reduced by the detection and removal of early-stage, treatable neoplasia but we lack proven biomarkers sensitive for both cancer and pre-invasive adenomas. The aims of this study were to determine if adenomas and cancers exhibit charac...
