Official title
In Vivo Liquid Biopsy for Early Detection of Metastatic Melanoma
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The Cytophone is a first in the world patented system to identify and count single circulating melanoma cells in blood circulation inside the human body. The Cytophone has a unique capability to find rare melanoma cells in the blood by an assessment of 100-500 times greater amounts of blood volume than routine blood tests. The important benefit of the Cytophone diagnosis is that the test does not require injection or any skin incision (i.e., non-invasiveness). The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate evidence of the capability of the Cytophone test to indicate a risk of metastasis and define CTC counts that correlate with melanoma recurrence, progression of metastatic disease, and therapy efficacy. The investigators believe that clinical trials will provide evidence that the Cytophone can diagnose risk of melanoma metastasis and recurrence earlier than existing methods.
