Years-early detection of cancer markers possible through research using OHS samples
Nov 26, 2021 // Study Updates
Plasma samples from 330 OHS participants were used to demonstrate that certain markers in the blood could be used to predict cancers up to seven years before a doctor’s diagnosis. Nicholas Cheng, a PhD student in the Awadalla Lab at the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, presented his research at the October 2021 American Society for Human Genetics conference.
