Mashup Score: 52Circulating tumour cell enumeration, biomarker analyses, and kinetics in patients with colorectal cancer and other GI malignancies - 5 month(s) ago
ObjectiveMost of the work in terms of liquid biopsies in patients with solid tumors is focused on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility of using circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in peripheral blood samples from patients with advanced or metastatic gastrointestinal (GI) cancers.MethodsIn this prospective study, blood samples were collected from each patient in 2 AccuCyte® blood collection tubes and each tube underwent CTC analysis performed utilizing the RareCyte® platform. The results from both tubes were averaged and a total of 150 draws were done, with 281 unique reported results. The cadence of sampling was based on convenience sampling and piggybacked onto days of actual clinical follow-ups and treatment visits. The CTC results were correlated with patient- and tumor-related variables.ResultsData from a total of 59 unique patients were included in this study. Patients had a median age of 58 years, with males representing 69% of the study population. M

Summary:. Cell-free tumor DNA has previously been detected in nonblood sources, including urine, saliva, stool, cerebrospinal fluid, and pleural fluid. In this issue, Saura and colleagues present a novel proof-of-concept study demonstrating that detection of tumor DNA in breast milk is feasible and may be a potential future strategy to screen for postpartum breast cancer.See related article by Saura et al., p. 2180 (14).
