PMH Trial SHERLOCK - Blood Test to Detect Traces of Cancer Remnants in Patients Post Treatment

  • 1.  PMH Trial SHERLOCK - Blood Test to Detect Traces of Cancer Remnants in Patients Post Treatment

    Posted 20 hours ago

    Hi Teal Sisters,

    I saw this news article today about research underway at Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) Cancer Centre in Toronto. The article doesn't list if ovarian cancer is one of the cancers being included however I'm hopeful. The trial is called SHERLOCK. The article said they were enrolled 7,000 patients. I'm not sure how they are sourcing them. Are any Teal Sisters in this forum aware or involved?

    @mfallis_OCC are you able to find able from a member of the OCC team if OVC patients are being included? 

    Is your cancer returning? A blood test might be able to tell

    Thanks, @Alwayslearning for tagging me in this post. I'll reach out to my colleagues who are connected to the research side of things and share what I can find out, as soon as possible.
