The Value of Monitoring Circulating Cell DNA (ctDNA) in Pediatric Lymphoma: A Prospective, Multicenter Clinical Study
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Lymphoma
In brief
The next-generation sequencing (NGS) based on liquid biopsy has been an emerging technology to identify tumor-specific genetic aberrations in malignant tumors. The tumor tissue (FFPE) and plasma samples from the newly diagnosed pediatric lymphoma patients were collected and sequenced by 475 genes panel before, during and post treatment, to evaluate the significance of the ctDNA in efficacy prediction, predicting recurrence or mechanism of resistance to chemotherapy for pediatric lymphoma.
