Microsatellite Instability Detection in Clinical Cancer Samples: A Multiplex qPCR Approach without Matching Normal Samples

2023-11-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Microsatellite instability (MSI) indicates DNA mismatch repair deficiency in cancers like colorectal cancer. The current gold standard technique, PCR/capillary electrophoresis (CE), requires matching normal samples and specialized instrumentation. We developed VarTrace, a rapid and low-cost quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay, to evaluate MSI using solely the tumor sample DNA, obviating the requireme...
