Detection of Circulating Tumor DNA in Early- and Late-Stage Human Malignancies

Chetan Bettegowda, +69 more
TL;DR: The ability of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to detect tumors in 640 patients with various cancer types was evaluated and suggested that ctDNA is a broadly applicable, sensitive, and specific biomarker that can be used for a variety of clinical and research purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone morphogenetic proteins inhibit the tumorigenic potential of human brain tumour-initiating cells

TL;DR: Findings show that the BMP–BMPR signalling system—which controls the activity of normal brain stem cells—may also act as a key inhibitory regulator of tumour-initiating, stem-like cells from GBMs and identify BMP4 as a novel, non-cytotoxic therapeutic effector, which may be used to prevent growth and recurrence of GBMs in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Independent association of extent of resection with survival in patients with malignant brain astrocytoma: Clinical article

TL;DR: In the authors' experience with both primary and secondary resection of malignant brain astrocytomas, increasing extent of resection was associated with improved survival independent of age, degree of disability, WHO grade, or subsequent treatment modalities used.
