Circulating Tumor DNA as a Biomarker of Radiographic Tumor Burden in SCLC. JTO clinical and research reports. 2021 Mar;2(2). 100110 p.
Abstract
Blood-based next-generation sequencing assays of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) have the ability to detect tumor-associated mutations in patients with SCLC. We sought to characterize the relationship between ctDNA mean variant allele frequency (VAF) and radiographic total-body tumor volume (TV) in patients with SCLC.
