Clinical Study on the Combined Detection of Plasma GNB4 and Riplet Gene Methylation for Monitoring Primary Liver Cancer Recurrence
Through follow-up testing of patients with primary liver cancer who underwent hepatectomy, liver transplantation, ablation therapy, or transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), a blinded comparative trial was conducted at each monitoring site. This trial evaluated the combined methylation detection kit for GNB4 and Riplet genes (fluorescent PCR method) against the clinical reference standard (defined as the physician's comprehensive diagnosis based on clinical guidelines and other criteria). The study evaluated the clinical performance of the assay in diagnosing primary liver cancer recurrence and validated the clinical efficacy of methylation detection kits for monitoring recurrence after primary liver cancer treatment.
