The Utility of Liquid Biopsy in Oncology Clinical Trials

XTalks

Liquid biopsy tests in oncology involve isolating entities such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and tumor-derived exosomes. The cfDNA that originates from tumors is called circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Optimal methods for bioinformatic analysis are still needed. percent show less reliability).
