Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Early detection of precursor lesions or early-stage cancer could hamper cancer development or improve survival rates. Liquid biopsy, which detects tumor biomarkers, such as mutations, in blood, is a promising avenue for cancer screening. AIM: To assess the presence of genetic variants in plasma cell-free tumor DNA from...
