An optimized targeted Next-Generation Sequencing approach for sensitive detection of single nucleotide variants
8 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) has become an important clinical aspect for early relapse detection during follow-up care after cancer treatment. Still, the sensitive detection of single base pair point mutations via Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) is hampered mainly due to high substitution error rates. We evaluated the use of NGS for the detection of low-level variants on an Ion Torrent PGM...
