Having 5 to 10 nonadvanced adenomas significantly increases the risk of advanced colorectal neoplasm, with a 10.1% 5-year incidence, highlighting the need for tailored surveillance.
A blood-based assay detects colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas with 95% accuracy, showing 91% sensitivity for cancers and 81% for advanced adenomas in a multicentre study.

Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) cases under age 50 are rising globally, with lifestyle and early-life factors contributing to the increasing burden.
The PATHFINDER 2 study found that a blood-based multi-cancer early detection test achieved a cancer detection rate of 0.54% with high specificity and positive predictive value in adults aged 50 and older.

The multi-cancer early detection test demonstrated a positive predictive value of up to 58% and detected primary cancers in 0.60% to 0.41% of participants across three screening rounds in NHS screening.
