Abstract excerpt
We present the first analysis examining molecular alterations detected utilizing a clinically available cell-free circulating tumor DNA (cfDNA) assay in a cohort of patients with advanced colorectal cancer (aCRC) diagnosed <50 versus ≥50 years of age. Patient characteristics and mutation frequencies were compared using cfDNA tests from 5873 patients. Patients <50 had more sequence alterations in APC, CTNNB1, and...
