Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Our hypothesis is that patients with detective circulating tumor cells in the blood or disseminated tumour cells in their bone marrow at diagnosis have a more advanced disease than negative patients. This information may be of therapeutic interest.
