Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer from Patient Blood Plasma using microRNA-Based RT-qPCR

The miRCURY LNA™ Universal RT miRNA PCR platform allows miRNome profiling from just 35µL of plasma. This high sensitivity has enabled DX programs at Exiqon where blood plasma samples from cancer patients are screened for miRNA with aberrant expression profiles. The objective of this work is to develop minimally invasive methods for early diagnosis of cancer. The characteristics and performance of the LNA™ based miRNA PCR platform will be discussed.
