Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Clinical detection of EGFR-TKI resistance mechanism through tissue can be really challenging due to risks associated with the procedure. Thus, liquid biopsy, especially circulation tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis, can be an adequate source for biomarker testing in targeted therapy. Our study was aimed at clinical validation of liquid biopsy next-generation sequencing (NGS) by comparison with tissue biopsy,...
