This study investigates hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers. It looks at whether collecting blood from a vein that drains from the cancer area can improve the detection of ctDNA compared to the usual method of taking blood from a vein in the arm.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of different blood sampling methods for detecting ctDNA. The purpose of this study is to determine if the cancer draining vein method provides better results than the standard peripheral vein method.
- Who can participate: Adults 18 years or older who have or are being evaluated for hepatobiliary or pancreatic cancer and are scheduled for a biopsy can participate. Participants must be able to provide consent.
- Study details: Participants will have blood samples taken from different veins to compare ctDNA detection methods. A placebo is not used in this study.
