Size-Based and Non-Affinity Based Microfluidic Devices for Circulating Tumor Cell Enrichment and Characterization [PDF]
Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) are tumor cells found in cancer patients’ peripheral blood. Enumeration of CTCs can provide prognosis information for cancer management (Cristofanilli et al., N Engl J Med 351(8):781–791, 2004; Cohen et al., J Clin Oncol 26(

Current detection technologies for circulating tumor cells [PDF]
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that circulate in the blood stream after being naturally shed from original or metastatic tumors, and can lead to a new fatal metastasis.

Circulating tumor cells as prognostic biomarkers in glioblastoma. [PDF]
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive type of tumor arising from the central nervous system. GBM remains an incurable disease despite current advancement in therapies, with survival rates of approximately 15 months.

Clinical relevance of circulating tumour cells in the bone marrow of patients with SCCHN [PDF]
Background: Clinical outcome of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (SCCHN) depends on several risk factors like the presence of locoregional lymph node or distant metastases, stage, localisation and histologic differentiation of the ...

Liquid Biopsy Analysis as a Tool for TKI-Based Treatment in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has recently evolved with the introduction of targeted therapy based on the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with certain gene alterations, including EGFR, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, and MET ...

The biology of circulating tumor cells [PDF]
Metastasis is a biologically complex process consisting of numerous stochastic events which may tremendously differ across various cancer types. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are cells that are shed from primary tumors and metastatic deposits into the blood stream.

Biomimetic Immuno-Magnetosomes for High-Performance Enrichment of Circulating Tumor Cells [PDF]
A novel biomimetic immuno-magnetosome (IMS) is developed by coating a leukocyte membrane (decorated with anti-epithelial cell-adhesion molecule antibody) on a magnetic nanocluster. In addition to the good stability and magnetic controllability, the IMS

Circulating Tumor Cells and PET [PDF]
Understanding the distinct molecular features of solid tumors provides the opportunity to develop more targeted and effective therapies. The evaluation and monitoring of these therapies require sophisticated laboratory and imaging technologies to detect potential benefit not necessarily translating into significant changes in tumor size.
