Abstract
Colorectal cancer is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Detection of early colorectal cancer is possible through approved screening tests but overall adherence is quite low. Implementation of effective noninvasive options could increase screening uptake and prevent a significant number of deaths. Noninvasive early cancer detection can potentially be achieved using a liquid biopsy. In this issue of Cancer Research, Cao and colleagues report on a novel multidimensional fragmentomics assay, named FRAGTECT, for colorectal cancer detection in circulating cell-free DNA with promising results. See related article by Cao et al., p. 3286.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Research, published by the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), is a journal that focuses on impactful original studies, reviews, and opinion pieces relevant to the broad cancer research community. Manuscripts that present conceptual or technological advances leading to insights into cancer biology are particularly sought after. The journal also places emphasis on convergence science, which involves bridging multiple distinct areas of cancer research.
With primary subsections including Cancer Biology, Cancer Immunology, Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms, Translational Cancer Biology, Cancer Landscapes, and Convergence Science, Cancer Research has a comprehensive scope. It is published twice a month and has one volume per year, with a print ISSN of 0008-5472 and an online ISSN of 1538-7445.
Cancer Research is abstracted and/or indexed in various databases and platforms, including BIOSIS Previews (R) Database, MEDLINE, Current Contents/Life Sciences, Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, Science Citation Index, Scopus, and Web of Science.
