Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common and deadliest cancers worldwide. Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a widely used and accessible tumoral marker, has limited performance in the early detection of HCC among high-risk populations.

Cancer treatment monitoring using cell-free DNA fragmentomes
AbstractCirculating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) assays for monitoring individuals with cancer typically rely on prior identification of tumor-specific mutations. Here, we develop a tumor-independent and mutation-independent approach (DELFI-tumor fraction, DELFI-TF) using low-coverage whole genome sequencing to determine the cfDNA tumor fraction and validate ...

Cell‐free epigenomes enhanced fragmentomics‐based model for early detection of lung cancer
Background Lung cancer is a leading cause of cancer mortality, highlighting the need for innovative non‐invasive early detection methods. Although cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) analysis shows promise, its sensitivity in early‐stage lung cancer patients remains a

Genome-wide cfDNA fragmentation patterns in cerebrospinal fluid reflect medulloblastoma groups
Identifying molecular groups in medulloblastoma currently requires invasive biopsies for accurate diagnosis. We analyzed cerebrospinal fluid cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentation patterns in 122 samples as a minimally-invasive alternative.

Genomic and fragmentomic landscapes of cell-free DNA for early cancer detection
Genomic analyses of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma are enabling noninvasive blood-based biomarker approaches to cancer detection and disease monitoring. Current approaches for identification of circulating tumour DNA typically use targeted tumour-specific mutations or methylation analyses.

A method of comprehensive sequencing analysis of the small RNA fragmentome (RiboMarker)
Circulating cell-free nucleic acids (cfDNA and cfRNA) found in blood and other biofluids are promising biomarkers for cancer. However, current methods exploiting tumor-derived cfDNA (ctDNA) are not sensitive enough in detecting minimal residual disease and early stages of cancer when it is more treatable.

Background Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fragmentomics has demonstrated significant differentiation power between cancer patients and healthy individuals, but little is known in pancreatic and biliary tract cancers.
