Excellent short Q&A with Dr. Patrick Hwu and Dr. Bruna Pellini at Moffitt Cancer Center on the challenge of detecting very small amounts of ctDNA analyte in #liquidbiopsy - especially for #cancerscreening and post-surgical monitoring for #MRD. Better methods for isolation of #ctDNA analytes from patient samples will help this effort. More target ctDNA at the beginning means improved assay sensitivity.
