Blood-Based Analysis Service for Bladder Cancer
Blood-based liquid biopsy refers to the analysis of various biomarkers in the blood to obtain information about the presence, characteristics, and progression of a disease, such as bladder cancer. Alfa Cytology provides comprehensive blood -based analysis services for bladder cancer and assists our customers in achieving their goals.
Blood-based Liquid Biopsy in Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer (BC) presents a significant challenge worldwide, characterized by late diagnosis, poor prognosis, and low survival rates. Traditional diagnostic and monitoring methods like cystoscopy and tissue biopsy have limitations due to tumor heterogeneity, aggressiveness, high cost, and limited suitability for long-term surveillance. However, in recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of liquid biopsies, particularly blood-based analysis, for the discovery of BC biomarkers.

Liquid biopsies, including blood-based analysis, provide a noninvasive and efficient approach to identify biomarkers for BC. Extensive research has focused on various liquid biopsy biomarkers, and they have shown promising results in several key applications for BC, including early detection, identification of microscopic residual disease, prediction of recurrence, and assessment of treatment response.
