In some aspects, the disclosure relates to compositions and method for detection, classification, and treatment of cancer. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to protease imaging sensors comprising a scaffold linked to an enzyme-specific substrate that includes a first detectable marker capable of being released from the prostate protease sensor when exposed to an enzyme present in cancer and a tumor imaging agent comprising a second detectable marker that is linked to the scaffold. In some embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of monitor progression of a tumor in a subject based upon detection of detectable markers in a sample obtained from a subject who has been administered a protease imaging sensor, upon detection of a tumor imaging agent, or any combination thereof.

A gastric tract acid (GTA) compound having the structure of formula I, as well as salts, esters, prodrugs, or labelled derivatives thereof, are provided. Such GTA compounds may be used for determining GTA levels of a sample, for diagnosing a subject as having or being at risk of developing colorectal cancer, or for raising antibodies. Antibodies, or fragments thereof, which specifically bind to the GTA of formula I are described, as well as uses of such antibodies or fragments for determining GTA levels in a sample, or for diagnosing a subject as having or being at risk of developing colorectal cancer. Kits comprising such GTA compounds and/or antibodies are also provided.
