Detection and prognostic role of heterogeneous populations of melanoma circulating tumour cells
10 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) can be assessed through a minimally invasive blood sample with potential utility as a predictive, prognostic and pharmacodynamic biomarker. The large heterogeneity of melanoma CTCs has hindered their detection and clinical application. METHODS: Here we compared two microfluidic devices for the recovery of circulating melanoma cells. The presence of CTCs in 43 blood...
