Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In a liquid biopsy of colorectal cancer patients, the usefulness as a biomarker of circulating tumor cells (CTC), plasma exosome-encapsulating microRNA, plasma cell free DNA was examined. CTC, microRNA and cell-free DNA were useful as cancer recurrence and prognostic markers. Analysis of CTC with the next generation sequence revealed a new genetic mutation in CTC of the recurrent case. microRNA-21 (miR-21) and miR-X were excellent markers for early diagnosis of colorectal cancer. The gene mutation of cell free DNA was correlated with the results of RECIST, and it was confirmed that cell free DNA was able to predict treatment effect earlier than CT.
