A Two-Gene Blood Test for Methylated DNA Sensitive for Colorectal Cancer
30 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Specific genes are methylated with high frequency in colorectal neoplasia, and may leak into blood. Detection of multiple methylated DNA biomarkers in blood may improve assay sensitivity for colorectal cancer (CRC) relative to a single marker. We undertook a case-control study evaluating the presence of two methylation DNA markers, BCAT1 and IKZF1, in circulation to determine if they were...
