Cross-platform comparison of next-generation sequencing and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry for detecting KRAS/NRAS/BRAF/PIK3CA mutations in cfDNA from metastatic colorectal cancer patients

Background: Examining tumor KRAS/NRAS/BRAF/PIK3CA status in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is essential for treatment selection and prognosis evaluation. Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma is a feasible source for tumor gene analysis. Methods: In this study, we recruited mCRC patients and analyzed...
