Abstract excerpt
Studies have indicated that detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) prior to treatment is a negative prognostic marker in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ctDNA is currently identified by detection of tumor mutations. Commercial next-generation sequencing (NGS) assays for mutation analysis of ctDNA for routine practice usually include small gene panels and are not suitable for general mutation analysis. In...
