Plasma DNA-Based Molecular Diagnosis, Prognostication, and Monitoring of Patients With EWSR1 Fusion-Positive Sarcomas
7 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
Purpose Ewing sarcoma (ES) and desmoplastic small round cell tumors (DSRCTs) are aggressive sarcomas molecularly characterized by EWSR1 gene fusions. As pathognomonic genomic events in these respective tumor types, EWSR1 fusions represent robust potential biomarkers for disease monitoring. Methods To investigate the feasibility of identifying EWSR1 fusions in plasma-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from patients...
