Standardization of the liquid biopsy for pediatric diffuse midline glioma using ddPCR
3 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
Diffuse midline glioma (DMG) is a highly morbid pediatric brain tumor. Up to 80% of DMGs harbor mutations in histone H3-encoding genes, associated with poor prognosis. We previously showed the feasibility of detecting H3 mutations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the liquid biome of children diagnosed with DMG. However, detection of low levels of ctDNA is highly dependent on platform sensitivity and sample...
