Early dynamics of circulating tumor DNA predict chemotherapy responses for patients with esophageal cancer
2021-03-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose</h4> We investigated whether early circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) changes, measured using digital PCR (dPCR), can predict later chemotherapy responses in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC). <h4>Design</h4> We compared the dynamics of ctDNA and tumor volumes during chemotherapy in 42 ESCC. The accuracy of predictions of later chemotherapy responses were evaluated by the ratio of the variant allele fr...
