Platinum-based chemotherapy is one of treatment mainstay for patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) but it is still a "one-size fits all" approach. Here, we aimed to investigate the predictive and monitoring role of circulating c...
BACKGROUND: Cell-free DNA's (cfDNA) use as a biomarker in cancer is challenging due to genetic heterogeneity of malignancies and rarity of tumor-derived molecules. Here we describe and demonstrate a novel machine-learning guided panel design strategy...
BACKGROUND: Blood-based methods using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) are under development as an alternative to existing screening tests. However, early-stage detection of cancer using tumor-derived cfDNA has proven challenging because of the small proportion...
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is a minimally invasive cancer biomarker that can be used to inform treatment of cancer patients. The utility of ctDNA as a cancer biomarker depends on the ability to accurately detect somatic variants associated with c...
Given the growing burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) as a global health challenge, it becomes imperative to focus on strategies that can mitigate its impact. Post-treatment surveillance has emerged as essential for early detection of recurrence, signi...
PURPOSE: To use modern machine learning approaches to enhance and automate the feature extraction from the longitudinal circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) data and to improve the prediction of survival and disease progression, risk stratification, and tre...

Liquid biopsy has multiple benefits and is used extensively in other fields of oncology, but its role in neuro-oncology has been limited so far. Multiple tumour-derived materials like circulating tumour cells (CTCs), tumour-educated platelets (TEPs),...

This study introduces a groundbreaking approach to early cancer detection through the analysis of cell-free DNA (cfDNA), utilizing machine learning algorithms to navigate the complexities of low circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) fractions and genetic het...
MOTIVATION: Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a promising biomarker for cancer prognosis and chemosensitivity. Techniques are rapidly evolving for the detection of MSI from tumor-normal paired or tumor-only sequencing data. However, tumor tissues a...
