Rapid molecular profiling utilising minimal quantities of endobronchial ultrasound-guided aspirates for the detection of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, KRAS, ALK, ROS1, RET, NTRK and MET gene alterations from patients with non-small-cell lung carcinomas on the Biocartis Idylla™ platform.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Comprehensive molecular analysis for patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is essential for managing modern targeted therapies. This study sought to establish the feasibility of utilising real-time PCR to perform rapid and comprehensive profiling on minimal amounts of endobronchial ultrasound-guided (EBUS) aspirates as a fast, tissue-sparing route of predictive profiling. METHODS: A...
