Abstract excerpt
We prospectively evaluated the utility of ESR1 and PIK3CA mutation analysis with cell-free DNA (cfDNA) using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) for the efficacy of endocrine therapy (ET) in hormone receptive positive (HR+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. CfDNA was analyzed just before the start of ET for MBC. E380Q, Y537N, Y537S, and D538G were assessed for ESR1 mutations and H1047R, E545K, and E542K were...
