Static Biomarkers

Overview

Static biomarkers are measurable biological indicators that reflect a relatively stable feature of a person's health or disease at the time of testing, as opposed to dynamic markers that are tracked for change over time. They include laboratory measures such as tumour markers, hormone levels, and other substances detected in blood or tissue that help establish the presence, type, or stage of a condition. By providing a snapshot of biological status, static biomarkers support diagnosis, classification of disease, and decisions about how a patient might be managed, and they form part of the broader effort to characterize disease through objective measurement. Within this journal's focus on Cancer Genetics And Biomarkers, research addresses how biomarkers are discovered, validated, and applied to detect and characterize cancer. Reported work includes the development of platforms for cancer biomarker development that aim to model complex disease in ways relevant to discovery and testing. This reflects the wider goal of identifying reliable markers that can improve detection and inform treatment. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to static biomarkers and their role in the genetics and diagnosis of cancer.
