Expanding the clinical uses of ctDNA

open access: yesPractical oncology, 2021
The majority of currently available studies on the use of this circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) deal with the detection of mutations. The analysis of cfDNA is often discussed in the context of the noninvasive detection of mutations that lead to resistance mechanisms and therapeutic and disease monitoring in cancer patients.

Integrating ctDNA testing for EGFR analysis in advanced non-small cell lung cancer: strategies for clinical laboratories

open access: yesAdvances in Laboratory Medicine
Epidermal growth factor receptor gene (EGFR) molecular testing is essential for guiding targeted therapies in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Between 15 and 40 % of patients with NSCLC carry mutations in EGFR that are sensitive

Advances in Clinical Application of ctDNA in Tumor Detection, Screening, Prognosis and Treatment

open access: yesZhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2020
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a tumor-derived fragmented DNA in blood and is a characteristic marker of tumor. Through the correlative detection of ctDNA, the trace information of the tumor in the blood of the patients can be detected, and the ...

Effect of DNA input on analytical and clinical parameters of a circulating tumor DNA assay for comprehensive genomic profiling

open access: yesJournal of Laboratory Medicine
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assays play an increasingly important role in cancer management. A new version of TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO500) ctDNA, v2, was recently released, and the recommended DNA input was decreased to 20 ng from 30 ng in the prior ...

Response-adaptive breast cancer care in the grey zones: integrating ER and HER2 targeted PET, FDG PET/CT under immunotherapy, and ctDNA kinetics [PDF]

open access: yesExploration of Targeted Anti-tumor Therapy
Breast cancer management increasingly hinges on decisions made in “grey zones” where tissue sampling is scarce, and tumour biology evolves under therapeutic pressure.

ctDNA in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Critical Appraisal

open access: yesCurrent Oncology
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest malignancies due to late diagnosis and limited treatment options. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a promising, minimally invasive biomarker that could improve the clinical outcomes of patients with PDAC by enabling early disease detection, minimal residual disease (MRD) assessment ...

Dynamics of ctDNA in patients with NSCLC

open access: yesAnnals of Oncology, 2019
Abstract Background For many years, researchers have tried to find more effective ways to find out if a person has cancer, and find it at an early stage, when it is most curable. One idea that is gaining popularity is called liquid biopsy. Methods From 2016 to 2018 we studied 1050 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Contemporary Use of ctDNA for the Colorectal Surgeon

open access: yesClinics in Colon and Rectal Surgery
AbstractWhile advances in treatment and diagnostics have improved prognosis in colorectal cancer (CRC), room for advancement remains, highlighting the importance of improving tools for early detection and treatment guidance. Current national guidelines rely on stage-based treatment recommendations but fail to identify patients with lower stage disease ...
