ABSTRACT Circulating cell-free DNA (ccfDNA) sequencing for low-burden cancer monitoring is limited by sparsity of circulating tumor (ctDNA), the abundance genomic material within a plasma sample, and pre-analytical error rates due to library preparation, errors. Sequencing costs have historically favored development deep targeted approaches overcoming in ctDNA detection, but these techniques are ccfDNA samples, which imposes ceiling on maximal depth coverage panels. Whole genome (WGS) an...
Abstract In many areas of oncology, we lack sensitive tumor-burden monitoring to guide critical decision making. While circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) promises enable disease monitoring, this approach is limited by the sparsity ctDNA in plasma. To overcome challenge, error-corrected deep targeted sequencing has been proposed. Nonetheless, framework low number genomic equivalents (GEs, ~103/mL plasma), imposing a ceiling on effective depth. We have previously shown that genome-wide mutational...
