Title:
METHODS FOR PERSONALIZED DETECTION OF THE RECURRENCE OF CANCER OR METASTASIS AND/OR EVALUATION OF TREATMENT RESPONSE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/178606
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for the personalized detection of the recurrence of a cancer or the metastasis of cancer in a subject. Such methods may comprise detecting one or more genetic mutations in a subject's cancer prior to treatment with an anti-cancer therapy and analyzing whether those one or more mutations are present in a liquid biopsy obtained from the subject after treatment with the anti-cancer therapy. Detection of the one or more mutations in the liquid biopsy may be used to assess that the cancer has recurred or metastasized in the subject, or evaluate the efficacy of a treatment.
