Liquid biopsy for evaluating mutations and chromosomal aberrations in cerebrospinal fluid from patients with primary or metastatic CNS tumors [PDF]
Background: Cytopathology analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is limited in detecting tumors in patients with suspected primary or metastatic central nervous system (CNS) malignancy.

Detection of wild-type EGFR amplification and EGFRvIII mutation in CSF-derived extracellular vesicles of glioblastoma patients [PDF]
Background: RNAs within extracellular vesicles (EVs) have potential as diagnostic biomarkers for patients with cancer and are identified in a variety of biofluids. Glioblastomas (GBMs) release EVs containing RNA into cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

One of the greatest challenges in neuro-oncology is diagnosis and therapy (theranostics) of leptomeningeal metastasis (LM), brain metastasis (BM) and brain tumors (BT), which are associated with poor prognosis in patients.

Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) are a severe complication of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and normally accompanied by poor prognosis. For the patients with targetable mutations, epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are the preferred treatment, but the acquired TKI resistance is inextricable.

Liquid Biopsy for Detection of T790M Mutation in Patient with EGFR-Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer with Leptomeningeal Metastases: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Liquid biopsy is increasingly used in management of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer(NSCLC), especially when tissue availability tumor is limited. This especially true in the context ofLeptomeningeal metastases. The circulating cell-free DNA from

Abstract The LBSeqKids clinically validated liquid biopsy platform combines low passage whole genome sequencing (LP-WGS) to detect copy number alterations (CNAs) and a 136 gene targeted sequencing panel (TSP) to detect mutations in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), aqueous humor of the eye and plasma in patients with solid tumors.

Molecular analysis in liquid biopsies for diagnostics of primary central nervous system lymphoma: Review of literature and future opportunities [PDF]
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an aggressive lymphoma with a poor prognosis, for which accurate and timely diagnosis is of utmost importance.

Abstract BACKGROUND SJDAWN (NCT03434262) is a St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital phase 1 trial that assessed the safety and benefit of CDK4/6 inhibitor-based therapy in patients with relapsed CNS tumors. To capture tumor evolution dynamics and arising resistance mechanisms in response to treatment,

Pediatric central nervous system tumors remain challenging to diagnose. Imaging approaches do not provide sufficient detail to discriminate between different tumor types, while the histopathological examination of tumor tissue shows high inter-observer ...
