ctDNA for Risk Stratification in Melanoma

The Value of Circulating Tumour DNA in Risk Stratification in Melanoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study examines circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a biomarker in patients with primary melanoma, prior to surgical excision. The hypothesis is that ctDNA may be detectable in pre-operative blood samples from patients with high-risk primary melanoma, potentially providing a baseline measurement for future disease monitoring.
