Liquid Biopsy Assay Evaluated for Early Detection of Gastric Cancer

Gastric cancer (GC) is the fourth most-commonly diagnosed cancer, and the third leading cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. Despite improvements in treatment modalities, the prognosis for advanced GC following curative resection remains poor. More...

Leptomeningeal Disease Diagnosed Using CSF Cell-Free DNA

Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) is a devastating complication of solid and liquid systemic and central nervous system malignant neoplasms. LMD, in which cancer metastasizes to the cerebrospinal fluid, occurs in 4% to 15% of cancer patients and is associated with poor survival, with untreated patients dying within four to six weeks.
