Need for RCTs for Cancer Screening Blood Tests

JAMA Internal Medicine

In recent years, blood tests that look for circulating tumor DNA and biomarkers (termed liquid biopsies) have been developed. As Carr and Welch describe in this issue of JAMA Internal Medicine, these tests are being explored for diagnosis of suspected cancer, cancer surveillance after treatment, response to therapy, and chemotherapeutic selection. Most importantly, these blood tests are also being explored as multicancer early detection (MCED) tests for cancer screening in asymptomatic persons.
