Evaluation of 3 molecular-based assays for microsatellite instability detection in formalin-fixed tissues of patients with endometrial and colorectal cancers
2 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Microsatellite instability (MSI) status is routinely assessed in patients with colorectal and endometrial cancers as it contributes to Lynch syndrome initial screening, tumour prognosis and selecting patients for immunotherapy. Currently, standard reference methods recommended for MSI/dMMR (deficient MisMatch Repair) testing consist of immunohistochemistry and pentaplex PCR-based assays, however, novel...
