Abstract excerpt
Liquid biopsy is currently approved for management of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, one unanswered question is whether the rate of cell-free DNA (cfDNA)-negative samples is due to technical limitations rather than to tumor genetic characteristics. Using four microsatellite markers that map specific chromosomal loci often lost in lung cancer,...
