Circulating Tumor DNA in Oncology [PDF]
When somatic cells in the human body undergo apoptosis or necrosis, the released DNA enters the bloodstream. This type of DNA is called cell-free DNA (cfDNA). In patients with cancer, DNA released from tumor cells is called circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), which carries genetic alterations specific to tumor cells.

Cell-free circulating tumor DNA in cancer [PDF]
Cancer is a common cause of death worldwide. Despite significant advances in cancer treatments, the morbidity and mortality are still enormous. Tumor heterogeneity, especially intratumoral heterogeneity, is a significant reason underlying difficulties in

Liquid biopsy in hepatocellular carcinoma: circulating tumor cells and circulating tumor DNA [PDF]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers and a leading cause of death worldwide. Due to latent liver disease, late diagnosis, and nonresponse to systemic treatments, surgical resection and/or biopsy specimens are still generally ...

Molecular features unique to circulating tumor DNA enable the tumor-naïve liquid biopsy of glioblastoma [PDF]
Glioblastoma is the most common and deadly brain cancer in adults. Although the disease disrupts the blood-brain barrier and exposes the tumor to the systemic circulation, using circulating cell-free DNA as a non-invasive biomarker for diagnosing ...

Circulating cell-free DNA and circulating tumor cells, the “liquid biopsies” in ovarian cancer
Limited understanding of ovarian cancer (OC) genome portrait has hindered the therapeutic advances. The serial monitoring of tumor genotypes is becoming increasingly attainable with circulating cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) and circulating tumor cells (CTCs ...

Circulating Tumor Cells and Circulating Tumor DNA: Challenges and Opportunities on the Path to Clinical Utility [PDF]
Abstract Recent technological advances have enabled the detection and detailed characterization of circulating tumor cells (CTC) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood samples from patients with cancer. Often referred to as a “liquid biopsy,” CTCs and ctDNA are expected to provide real-time monitoring of tumor evolution and ...

Liquid Biopsy as a Method for Minimally Invasive Diagnosis of Thyroid Cancer [PDF]
Thyroid cancer is the 9th most common cancer in the world. The five-year survival rate for this disease is over 98%. However, in some patients there are cases of rapidly progressive treatment-resistant cancer that cannot be differed from poor-invasive ...

Clinical Application of Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis [PDF]
Liquid biopsy using circulating tumor DNA helps overcome the limitations of conventional tissue testing. Non-invasive molecular profiling using circulating tumor DNA is increasingly being used to diagnose cancer, stratify risk, and select targeted ...
