Biomarker discovery study of inflammatory proteins for colorectal cancer early detection demonstrated importance of screening setting validation
Most studies identifying inflammatory markers for early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) were conducted using clinically manifest cases. We aimed to identify circulating inflammatory biomarkers for early detection of CRC and validate them in both a clinical setting and a true screening setting.
