Comparison of three molecular assays for the detection and molecular characterization of circulating tumor cells in breast cancer
7 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Comparison studies between different analytical methodologies for circulating tumor cells (CTC) detection and molecular characterization are urgently needed, since standardization of assays is essential before their use in clinical practice. METHODS: We compared three different CTC molecular assays. To avoid discrepancies due to pre-analytical errors we used the same cDNAs throughout our study. CTC...
