Mutational Analysis of Circulating Tumor Cells from Colorectal Cancer Patients and Correlation with Primary Tumor Tissue
22 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) provide a non-invasive accessible source of tumor material from patients with cancer. The cellular heterogeneity within CTC populations is of great clinical importance regarding the increasing number of adjuvant treatment options for patients with metastatic carcinomas, in order to eliminate residual disease. Moreover, the molecular profiling of these rare cells might lead to...
