Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is a rare malignancy and lack of effective diagnostic and prognostic marker. Here, we aimed to investigate the clinical implication of TP53 mutation detection in BTC using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR). METHODS: TP53 gene (loci p.R175H, p.R248Q, p.R248W, and p.R273H) mutation frequencies of 45 pairs of tumor tissues (TTs) and adjacent normal tissues (ANTTs) were analyzed,...
