Analysis of Circulating Tumor Cells Laboratory presents abstracts at AACR Annual Meeting

1-5 April 2017, Washington, DC, USA

A number of ACTC Lab members are presenting abstracts at the 108th American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in Washington, DC.

All abstracts include the development of highly specific and sensitive liquid biopsy approaches for the detection of genetic and epigenetic alterations on Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).
