Detection of EGFR gene mutation status from pleural effusions and other body fluid specimens in patients with lung adenocarcinoma
10 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation status is essential to the optimal management of lung adenocarcinoma. Liquid biopsy has advantages such as noninvasiveness, speediness, and convenience. This study aimed to detect EGFR gene mutations using next-generation sequencing (NGS) from different types of body fluids from patients with lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: This was a prospective...
