To prove a leftover-cancer test works you need blood taken years before relapse. Collecting and freezing yearly samples now makes every future test testable.
Every new MRD or early detection assay needs pre-diagnostic or pre-relapse serial specimens, which take years to accumulate and cannot be created retrospectively. A prospective survivor cohort of 50,000 people banking annual plasma, with registry-linked outcomes and open access rules, would become the shared validation substrate for the whole field.
