Blood Tests May Prevent Relapse in Breast Cancer Patients

The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust is leading an international research collaboration to offer blood tests that can identify risk of relapse in breast cancer patients. The trial will assess whether personalised blood tests can show which patients will relapse, years before it’s shown on a scan - treatment can then be altered to try and prevent relapse from happening. There are currently no effective tests to establish which patients are at risk of relapse after previous treatment for breast cancer.
