Inactivating NF1 Mutations Are Enriched in Advanced Breast Cancer and Contribute to Endocrine Therapy Resistance.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-02-01)
PURPOSE: Advanced breast cancer (ABC) has not been subjected to the same degree of molecular scrutiny as early primary cancer. Breast cancer evolves with time and under the selective pressure of treatment, with the potential ...
Comparison of BEAMing and Droplet Digital PCR for Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis.
(AMER ASSOC CLINICAL CHEMISTRY, 2019-11-01)
BACKGROUND: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assays are increasingly used for clinical decision-making, but it is unknown how well different assays agree. We aimed to assess the agreement in ctDNA mutation calling between ...
Ultra-Sensitive Mutation Detection and Genome-Wide DNA Copy Number Reconstruction by Error-Corrected Circulating Tumor DNA Sequencing.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2018-08-27)
BACKGROUND: Circulating free DNA sequencing (cfDNA-Seq) can portray cancer genome landscapes, but highly sensitive and specific technologies are necessary to accurately detect mutations with often low variant frequencies. ...
Tracking evolution of aromatase inhibitor resistance with circulating tumour DNA analysis in metastatic breast cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2017-10-04)
BACKGROUND: Selection of resistance mutations may play a major role in the development of endocrine resistance. ESR1 mutations are rare in primary breast cancer but have high prevalence in patients treated with aromatase ...
Reproducibility of Digital PCR Assays for Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis in Advanced Breast Cancer.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2016-10-19)
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis has the potential to allow non-invasive analysis of tumor mutations in advanced cancer. In this study we assessed the reproducibility of digital PCR (dPCR) assays of circulating tumor ...
The Genetic Landscape and Clonal Evolution of Breast Cancer Resistance to Palbociclib plus Fulvestrant in the PALOMA-3 Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-11-01)
CDK4/6 inhibition with endocrine therapy is now a standard of care for advanced estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer. Mechanisms of CDK4/6 inhibitor resistance have been described preclinically, with limited evidence ...
