Overview

Prospective observational study evaluates DELFI-TF for monitoring treatment response in metastatic colorectal cancer, suggesting improved assessment methods.

Key Points

  • The study aims to assess the clinical value of DELFI-TF in monitoring treatment response compared to traditional CT imaging in metastatic colorectal cancer.
  • Prospective observational substudy of the Dutch Colorectal Cancer Cohort.
  • Longitudinal collection of blood samples alongside routine CT imaging.
  • Assessment of ctDNA levels using the DELFI-TF assay.
  • Analysis of ddPCR samples from patients with confirmed RAS or BRAF mutations.
  • Exploration of various endpoints related to ctDNA dynamics and treatment response.
  • 504 patients were enrolled, with 2186 blood samples matched to corresponding CT scans.
  • The majority of blood samples were collected within 14 days of CT imaging.
  • Comprehensive demographic and clinical data will be presented, supporting ongoing evaluation until 2026.
  • The study aims to establish DELFI-TF's potential as a complementary tool for treatment monitoring.
