Integrated epigenetic biomarkers in circulating cell-free DNA as a robust classifier for pancreatic cancer
23 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The high lethal rate of pancreatic cancer is partly due to a lack of efficient biomarkers for screening and early diagnosis. We attempted to develop effective and noninvasive methods using 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) markers from circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) for the detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). RESULTS: A 24-feature 5mC model that can...
