Mashup Score: 9
Overview The NCI’s Cancer Diagnosis Program in the Division of Cancer Treatment and Diagnosis is hosting a workshop on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in cancer treatment and clinical care. Previously, a workshop was held in 2016focused on promoting the translation of ctDNA assays into clinical research. In the intervening years, much progress has been made in the fast-evolving field of ctDNA, and clinical utility has been demonstrated.

Mashup Score: 2The emerging promise of liquid biopsies in solid tumors - 1 year(s) ago
Liquid biopsies of circulating tumor DNA offer a non-invasive tool with many potential applications in oncology, including early cancer detection, profiling, disease prognosis, prediction of therapy response and monitoring disease status. A growing body of literature and clinical trials support an increasingly valuable role for liquid biopsies in the care of patients with solid malignancies.

Mashup Score: 7Targeted next-generation sequencing of circulating-tumor DNA for tracking minimal residual disease in localized colon cancer - 2 year(s) ago
A high percentage of patients diagnosed with localized colon cancer (CC) will relapse after curative treatment. Although pathological staging currently guides our treatment decisions, there are no biomarkers determining minimal residual disease (MRD) and patients are at risk of being undertreated or even overtreated with chemotherapy in this setting. Circulating-tumor DNA (ctDNA) can to be a…
