Abstract

Abstract The potential of blood tests for multi-cancer early detection (MCED) to reduce cancer mortality has elicited both optimism and concern about their generalized applicability. Identifying in the general population individuals at increased risk, through the use of biomarkers together with subject characteristics, has the potential to trigger preventive intervention and to improve effectiveness of early detection through a tailored approach to screening based on a personalized risk profile. The contribution of blood-based biomarkers for personalized lung cancer risk assessment will be highlighted. Citation Format: Samir Hanash.
