Blood Draw Predicts Breast Cancer Relapse
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a promising biomarker for noninvasive assessment of cancer burden, but existing ctDNA detection methods have insufficient sensitivity or patient coverage for broad clinical applicability. Here Newman et al., (2014) introduce cancer personalized profiling by deep sequencing (CAPP-Seq), an economical and ultrasensitive method for quantifying ctDNA. They implemented CAPP-Seq for nonsmall-cell […]
