Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Japan, chest X-ray and sputum cytology examination are recommended to lung cancer screening, and in western countries the low dose CT is recommended. However, the accuracy to screen lung cancer is varied widely for the reasons that skills of trained physicians and technicians for chest X-ray, low dose CT and sputum cytology examination are also varied. In this study, we developed a technique to accurately and mechanically detect the tumor-specific alteration, such as aberrant DNA methylation observed on tumor-derived free nucleic acid in sputum and tried to innovate the current lung cancer screening tool based on analyzing methylation status in 76 CpG. We analyzed two independent cohorts by our new developing assay and obtained extremely high precision and reproducibility with AUC of each ROC curve being 0.93 or more.
