Targeted liquid biopsy for brain tumors [PDF]
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a promising source of molecular biomarkers in the detection and monitoring of brain malignancies. Unlike peripheral blood, where biomarker detection is hindered by the blood-brain barrier and the complex nature of biofluids ...

Role of Machine Learning in Liquid Biopsy of Brain Tumours [PDF]
Liquid biopsy has multiple benefits and is used extensively in other fields of oncology, but its role in neuro-oncology has been limited so far. Multiple tumour-derived materials like circulating tumour cells (CTCs), tumour-educated platelets (TEPs ...

Utility of cerebrospinal fluid liquid biopsy in distinguishing CNS lymphoma from cerebrospinal infectious/demyelinating diseases [PDF]
Background Distinguishing between central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) and CNS infectious and/or demyelinating diseases, although clinically important, is sometimes difficult even using imaging strategies and conventional cerebrospinal fluid (CSF ...

Low Detection Rate of H3K27M Mutations in Cerebrospinal Fluid Obtained from Lumbar Puncture in Newly Diagnosed Diffuse Midline Gliomas [PDF]
Recent studies have suggested the feasibility of detecting H3K27M mutations in the cerebrospinal fluid of diffuse midline glioma (DMG) patients. However, cerebrospinal fluid from patients in these studies were collected mainly during biopsy, ventriculo ...

Liquid biopsy for cancer management: a revolutionary but still limited new tool for precision medicine [PDF]
The term liquid biopsy is used in contraposition to the traditional “solid” tissue biopsy. In the oncology field it has opened a new plethora of clinical opportunities as tumor-derived material is shedded into the different biofluids from where it can be

Liquid biopsy represents a major development in cancer research, with significant translational potential. Similarly, it is increasingly recognized that multi-omic molecular approaches are a powerful avenue through which to understand complex and heterogeneous disease biology. We hypothesize that merging these two promising frontiers of cancer research

Chromatin accessibility derived from cfDNA serves as a novel classification biomarker of glioma [PDF]
IntroductionGliomas can be classified by their molecular characteristics, which are also closely associated with clinical outcomes. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA)-based liquid biopsy in gliomas is challenging because of the limited amount of tumor-derived cfDNA ...

Analysis of cerebrospinal fluid tumor-derived DNA to obviate biopsy of IDH-mutant brainstem glioma in an adult [PDF]
Adult brainstem gliomas are rare and present unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to their critical location and limited biopsy feasibility. Molecular profiling of tumor-derived DNA (t-DNA) isolated from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is emerging ...
