Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Comprehensive biomarker testing is mandatory for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pleural effusion cell blocks are a minimally invasive alternative to biopsy. The AmoyDx pan lung cancer (PLC) polymerase chain reaction panel is a sensitive multiplex assay; however, its performance using pleural cell-block specimens with low tumor-cell content remains largely unexplored. METHODS: We...
