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

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extent of surgical resection is independently associated with survival in patients with hemispheric infiltrating low-grade gliomas.

TL;DR: GTR was associated with a delay in tumor progression and malignant degeneration as well as improved OS independent of age, degree of disability, histological subtype, or revision versus primary resection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of surgically acquired motor and language deficits on overall survival after resection of glioblastoma multiforme

TL;DR: The development of new perioperative motor or language deficits was associated with decreased overall survival despite similar extent of resection and adjuvant therapy, and results suggest that these surgical morbidities may also affect survival.
