Droplet-Based Digital PCR Procedures and Optimized NGS to Track Circulating Tumor DNA in Liquid Biopsies: Application to Cancer Patient Follow-UpThursday, 25 October 2018 at 15:00 Add to Calendar ▼2018-10-25 15:00:002018-10-25 16:00:00Europe/LondonDroplet-Based Digital PCR Procedures and Optimized NGS to Track Circulating Tumor DNA in Liquid Biopsies: Application to Cancer Patient Follow-UpExosomes and Liquid Biopsies Europe 2018 in Rotterdam, The NetherlandsRotterdam, The NetherlandsSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.com Tracking of circulating cell-free nucleic acids in body effluents has been greatly facilitated by recent technological developments including droplet-based digital PCR and optimized NGS. In particular, droplet based digital PCR has allowed to reach unprecedented sensitivity and accuracy for rare sequences detection. Complementarity of these technologies will be presented through several retrospective and prospective studies. Moreover, we will present their application for the detection of circulating tumor DNA and its potential use for cancer patient treatment management. |
