The present pilot study aims to investigate a new strategy in the liquid biopsy protocol for the diagnosis of gliomas based on the detection of circulating tumor DNA in the blood of patients with brain lesions compatible with this type of tumor. In order to increase the sensitivity of the technique, the investigators will work with raw blood samples through minimally invasive procedures. The subsequent analysis will be done with digital PCR, due to its low detection limit. The mutational results of each patient's samples will be compared with those obtained from the corresponding tissue biopsies. This step will allow the team to determine the robustness and reliability of the liquid biopsy. The grading of the tumor, as well as the confirmation of the diagnosis, will be obtained from the histological data. With the inclusion of more patients in the future, and with the optimization of the mutations investigated, the investigators want to standardize the protocol for the diagnosis of gliomas with liquid biopsy. This technique is less invasive than current surgical procedures used for diagnosis. In addition, using fewer hospital resources should allow a more accurate and rapid diagnosis of the pathology, and therefore, start the more personalized therapeutic stage earlier.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |

Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
