Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains challenging to diagnose, necessitating the identification of a noninvasive biomarker that can differentiate it from other conditions such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and diverticular disease (DD). Raman spectroscopy (RS) stands out as a promising technique for monitoring blood biochemical profiles, with the potential to identify distinct signatures identifying CRC subjects. We performed RS analysis on dried plasma from 120 subjects: 32 CRC patients, 37 IBD patients, 20 DD patients, and 31 healthy controls. We also conducted longitudinal studies of CRC patient's postsurgery to monitor the spectral changes over time. We identified six spectral features that showed significant differences between CRC and non‐CRC patients, corresponding to tryptophan, tyrosine, phenylalanine, lipids, carotenoids, and disulfide bridges. These features enabled the classification of CRC patients with an accuracy of 87.5%. Moreover, longitudinal analysis revealed that the spectral differences normalized over 6 months after surgery, indicating their association with the presence of the disease. Our study demonstrates the potential of RS to identify specific biomolecular signatures related to CRC. These results suggest that RS could be a novel screening and monitoring tool, providing valuable insights for the development of noninvasive and accurate diagnostic methods for CRC. |
