Tumor-Informed ctDNA Testing for MRD Following Treatment of Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the rates of detectable ctDNA within two years of participants treated with curative-intent surgery or radiation-based treatment for HNC.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

1. To describe the prevalence of detectable ctDNA at initial diagnosis in participants with HNC.
2. To describe the association of quantitative ctDNA levels with time-to-event outcomes (overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and time to recurrence (TTR)).
3. To describe the association of quantitative ctDNA levels with follow-up imaging tumor volume.

OUTLINE:

Participants will have tissue samples collected at screening and blood samples collected for analysis before, during, and after non-investigational, standard of care treatment for cancer for up to 2 years
