Putative Clinical Potential of ERBB2 Amplification Assessment by ddPCR in FFPE-DNA and cfDNA of Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma Patients
27 Apr 2022
Abstract excerpt
Anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody trastuzumab improves the survival of those patients with advanced gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA) exhibiting HER2/ERBB2 overexpression/amplification. The current gold standard methods used to diagnose the HER2 status in GEA are immunohistochemistry (IHC) and silver or fluorescence in situ hybridization (SISH or FISH). However, they do not permit spatial and temporal tumor...
