Unintentional Weight Loss and Cancer: A Prospective Trial of Patient-centered Weight Tracking Combined With GRAIL Galleri Testing to Improve Early Detection

Conditions: Unintended Weight Loss

Sex: All
Ages: 40 Years – 80 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 1000
Sponsor: Case Comprehensive Cancer Center

Location: University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center, Case Comprehensive Cancer Center Cleveland Ohio

Summary

Unintentional weight loss (UWL) is commonly associated with a wide variety of diseases and there is still no valid diagnostic pathway for evaluating UWL. When detecting UWL coupled with GRAIL Galleri testing, (an investigational pan-cancer early detection test), it is thought that there is a greater positive predictive value in detecting malignancies. This study aims to test the potential synergistic effects of UWL detection and GRAIL usage to detect malignancy at an even earlier rate. UWL will be measured using weekly weight tracking.
