Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers an unbiased and noninvasive way to assess the genetic profiles of tumors. This study aimed to analyze mutations in ctDNA and their correlation with tissue mutations in patients with a variety of cancers. METHODS: We included 21 cancer patients treated with surgical resection for whom we collected paired tissue and plasma samples. Next-generation sequencing...
