Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Biomarker-driven clinical trials in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) usually accept biopsy specimens only, as cytology specimens are supposed to be more challenging due to low neoplastic cell content and suboptimal DNA quantity. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate 2 aspects of bronchoscopic biopsy and cytology specimens: (1) the proportion of neoplastic cells and quantity of DNA extracted, and...
