Isolation of Circulating Tumor Cells Using a Novel EMT-Based Capture Method

NCT02025413 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 46

Last updated 2018-12-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective of the preliminary lead-in study is to determine whether circulating tumor cells in patients with metastatic progressive castration-resistant prostate cancer or metastatic progressive breast cancer can be captured using a novel mesenchymal-marker based ferrofluid (N-cadherin or O-cadherin based).

The primary objective of each comparative cohort (second stage, prostate cancer) is to compare the non-detection rate of circulating tumor cells between the standard and novel methods.
