Analysis of single circulating tumor cells (CTCs) to infer phenotype and genome changes in response to therapeutic pressures in biliary tract cancer

2020-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is a highly fatal disease mainly treated with standard chemotherapy, albeit with limited efficacy. New therapeutic options are greatly needed, but the use of targeted treatments is often prevented by the impossibility of obtaining tissue biopsies for molecular characterization. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) could represent a valuable alternative to tissue biopsies, also allowing a real-...
