European screening platform for EORTC clinical trials in advanced colorectal cancer ‘SPECTAcolor’
SPECTAcolor demonstrated that recruitment to an academic screening platform is feasible and that central (quality-assured) testing may remain necessary even for commonly tested markers. SPECTAcolor has generated a clinical and molecular dataset with associated samples for >800 CRC patients for future academic research such as biomarker validation. Linking screening platforms to therapeutic trials and ensuring sustainability remain challenging.
