We developed genetic-epigenetic tissue mapping (GETMap) to determine the tissue composition of plasma DNA carrying genetic variants not present in the constitutional genome through comparing their methylation profiles with relevant tissues.

Total Number of Alterations in Liquid Biopsies Is an Independent Predictor of Survival in Patients With Advanced Cancers. [PDF]
PurposeStudies have demonstrated an association between quantity of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and poorer survival. We investigated the relationship between percent ctDNA (%ctDNA), total number of ctDNA alterations, and overall survival (OS) in liquid

Functional imaging and circulating biomarkers of response to regorafenib in treatment-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer patients in a prospective phase II study [PDF]
open32Regorafenib demonstrated efficacy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Lack of predictive biomarkers, potential toxicities and cost-effectiveness concerns highlight the unmet need for better patient selection.openKhan, Khurum; Rata,

A clinician’s handbook for using ctDNA throughout the patient journey
Background The promise of precision cancer medicine presently centers around the genomic sequence of a patient’s tumor being translated into timely, actionable information to inform clinical care.

The pitfalls and promise of liquid biopsies for diagnosing and treating solid tumors in children : a review [PDF]
Cell-free DNA profiling using patient blood is emerging as a non-invasive complementary technique for cancer genomic characterization. Since these liquid biopsies will soon be integrated into clinical trial protocols for pediatric cancer treatment ...

PURPOSE We assessed whether perioperative circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) could be a biomarker for early detection of molecular residual disease (MRD) and prediction of postoperative relapse in resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Circulating Tumor Cells and ctDNA in Sarcomas
Sarcomas are clustered in two oncological entities named bone and soft-tissue sarcomas. Both are rare cancers originating from the mesenchyme, characterized by their propensity to induce the development of lung metastases. Sarcoma cells escaping from the primary tumor site, spread to the pulmonary tissue through the bloodstream where they found a ...

Background Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) is emerging as a biomarker to predict recurrence in patients with curatively treated early stage colorectal cancer (CRC).
