Diagnostic potential of TERT promoter and FGFR 3 mutations in urinary cell‐free DNA in upper tract urothelial carcinoma
19 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
Most upper tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUC) are muscle invasive at the time of diagnosis. Current standard methods for the diagnosis of UTUC are invasive. Urine cytology is the only non-invasive test for detecting UTUC, but its sensitivity is low. A novel non-invasive assay for UTUC detection would improve patient outcome. This study aimed to investigate the mutation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in urine...
