Brief Summary

Kidney cancer is a highly malignant disease with 950 new cases every year in Denmark. Diagnosis and treatment of kidney cancer patients presents many challenges because that early stages of the disease are often asymptomatic and the disease is thus often at advanced stage or even metastatic when discovered. Metastasis is a predictor of bad prognosis, because the presence of metastases excludes the possibility of curative treatment (surgery). Systemic (medical) treatment is used for metastatic disease. It is of increasing importance to monitor how patients are responding to the treatment and switch to a different product if the tumor is not responding. Improved methods for detection of metastatic lesions would be of great advantaged for the clinicians in order to select the optimal treatment strategy for the patients. In the present study we aim to identify tumor markers in the blood and more specific we want to investigate whether circulating tumor-DNA can be used as a biomarker for monitoring the development of the disease during and after treatment. We want a better understanding of the tumor's heterogeneity and development. Furthermore we want to evaluate the diagnostic value of dual time FDG- PET/CT for the detection of bone and lymph node metastases in patients with kidney cancer
