Abstract excerpt
Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are rare cells which have left the primary tumor to enter the blood stream. Although only a small CTC subgroup is capable of extravasating, the presence of CTCs is associated with an increased risk of metastasis and a shorter overall survival. Understanding the heterogeneous CTC biology will optimize treatment decisions and will thereby improve patient outcome. For this, robust...
