Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Previous work indicated that aneuploidy of chromosome 8 in circulating tumor cells (CTCs) correlated with therapeutic efficacy for advanced gastric cancer (AGC) patients. In this follow-up study performed on the same population of AGC patients, we investigated whether and how aneuploidy of chromosome 8 in CTCs correlates with patients' clinical prognosis.
