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.

Exploring global cfDNA fragmentomics as a biomarker in real-world patients with melanoma
Circulating cell-free DNA fragmentomics-the analysis of cell-free DNA fragment-length profiles-has been explored as a biomarker across cancers, but evidence in melanoma is limited. We conducted a longitudinal prospective study of 235 patients with American Joint Committee on Cancer stages II-IV melanoma (549 plasma samples) and 11 phenotypic high-risk ...
