Validation of liquid biopsy: plasma cell-free DNA testing in clinical management of advanced non-small cell lung cancer
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract: Plasma cell-free tumor DNA, or circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), from liquid biopsy is a potential source of tumor genetic material, in the absence of tissue biopsy, for EGFR testing. Our validation study reiterates the clinical utility of ctDNA next generation sequencing (NGS) for EGFR mutation testing in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A total of 163 NSCLC cases were included in the validation, of...
