Current Perspectives on Circulating Tumor DNA, Precision Medicine, and Personalized Clinical Management of Cancer
29 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has recently emerged as a minimally invasive "liquid biopsy" tool in precision medicine. ctDNA-genomic DNA fragments that are released into the bloodstream after the active secretion of microvesicles or tumor cell lysis reflects tumor evolution and the genomic alterations present in primary and/or metastatic tumors. Notably, ctDNA analysis might allow the stratification of patients,...
