Mutant DNA in Plasma of Lung Cancer Patients: Potential for Monitoring Response to Therapy
1 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
The hypothesis tested was that mutant tumor DNA shed into plasma would show predictive value for monitoring response to therapy in non-small cell lung carcinoma patients. Pretreatment plasma specimens from 25 patients on a phase I trial were evaluated, 12 with paired posttreatment specimens, and 138 patients on the Southwest Oncology Group S0003 trial, 38 with paired posttreatment specimens, for the presence of...
