Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine

Graphical summary of the study design, intervention, and outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Patients with biliary tract cancer (BTC) often have actionable mutations, and comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) plays an important role. However, the feasibility of CGP using transpapillary biopsy (TPB) samples remains unclear.
