| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Circulation tumor cells (CTCs) were isolated from patients with lung cancer. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and MET amplification were detected successfully in single CTC using whole genome amplification technology. Also, gene expression analysis and PDL1 expression in single CTC were done successfully.
On the basis of these results, we prepared clinical trials for evaluation of molecular mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies.
