[Different Gene Mutation Spectrum of the Paired CSF and Plasma Samples in Lung Adenocarcinoma with Leptomeningeal Metastases: the Liquid Biopsy Based on Circulating Tumor DNA].

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) are a severe complication of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and normally accompanied by poor prognosis. For the patients with targetable mutations, epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are the preferred treatment, but the acquired TKI resistance is inextricable. The aim of this study is to analyze the different gene mutation...
