Promoter hypermethylation in plasma‐derived cell‐free DNA as a prognostic marker for pancreatic adenocarcinoma staging
31 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
Correct staging of pancreatic cancer is paramount, as treatment is stage specific. However, minimally invasive tools to facilitate staging are lacking. DNA promoter hypermethylation is a hallmark of cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate promoter hypermethylation in cell-free DNA as a prognostic marker for stage classification of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Consecutive patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma...
