Advancements in next-generation sequencing for diagnosis and treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer
In recent years, lung cancer has been the most commonly diagnosed cancer globally; 1.6 million people died of lung cancer in 2012 globally, making lung cancer the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Lung cancer can be mainly histologically classified into two types: non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), accounting for approximately 85% and 15% of cases, respe...
متن کاملUse of capture-based next-generation sequencing to detect ALK fusion in plasma cell-free DNA of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer
Capture-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a potentially useful diagnostic method to measure tumor tissue DNA in blood as it can identify concordant mutations between cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and primary tumor DNA in lung cancer patients. In this study, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of capture-based NGS for detecting ALK fusion in plasma cfDNA was assessed. 24 patients with tiss...

متن کاملExpression of Two Basic mRNA Biomarkers in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Detected by Real-Time RT-PCR, Individually and Simultaneously
Introduction: Although extensive research has been conducted on lung cancer markers, a singular clinically applicable marker has not been found yet. The objective of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity and the specificity of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA and lung-specific X protein (LUNX) mRNA biomarkers in peripheral blood to detect lung cancer individually and simultaneously. Met...
متن کاملALK FISH patterns and the detection of ALK fusions by next generation sequencing in lung adenocarcinoma
Break-apart ALK FISH probe is the FDA approved approach for detection of ALK rearrangements in lung carcinoma patients who may benefit from ALK kinase inhibitors. The FISH assay can be technically challenging and difficult to interpret. ALK immunohistochemistry and next generation sequencing have been proposed as alternative approaches. In this study, we compared various ALK -FISH patterns to n...
