Advances in liquid biopsy approaches for early detection and monitoring of cancer

Open access
Babayan, Anna, Pantel, Klaus·2018·Genome Medicine

Abstract

Progress in sensitive analytical approaches has opened new avenues for the detection of cells or products such as circulating cell-free DNA released by tumors. These 'liquid biopsies' are being explored in clinical trials for early cancer detection, prediction of recurrent disease, and assessment of therapeutic resistance mechanisms.

  • In NGS, liquid biopsies from cfDNA in body fluids are of great interest for identifying chromosomal or other genetic mutations to diagnose malignancies in presymptomatic phase.

    “In the next-generation sequencing (NGS) field, there is great interest in the use of liquid biopsies from cell-free DNA (cfDNA) extracted from body fluids, such as plasma, to identify chromosomal or other genetic mutations and thus diagnose malignancies in the presymptomatic phase123.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
