Abstract excerpt
To understand the potential and limitations of circulating tumor cell (CTC) sequencing for molecular diagnostics, we investigated the feasibility of identifying the ubiquitous KRAS mutation in single CTCs from pancreatic cancer (PC) patients. We used the NanoVelcro/laser capture microdissection CTC platform, combined with whole genome amplification and KRAS Sanger sequencing. We assessed both KRAS codon-12...
