Stephen Liu: Novel epigenomic cfDNA approach in diagnosis of EGFR mutant NSCLC

Stephen Liu shared a post on X about a recent paper by Jacob E. Berchuck et al. published in AACR Journals, commenting:

“SCLC transformation in EGFR mutant NSCLC likely underdiagnosed – requires tissue biopsy but can liquid biopsy help? Novel epigenomic cfDNA approach in Clinical Cancer Research shows uses histone modification to distinguish histologies. Very promising approach!”
