Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype-based subsets of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) might be predictors of tumor progression. We evaluated the clinical properties of different phenotypic CTCs in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Secondly, we explored the association between different phenotypic CTCs and the uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) by the primary tumor...
