What are the Clinical Applications of dPCR in Cancer?
Clinically, dPCR is used for detecting mutations in genes such as EGFR, KRAS, and BRAF, which are important for guiding targeted therapies. It is also employed in liquid biopsies to monitor treatment response and disease progression non-invasively. By analyzing ctDNA, clinicians can obtain real-time insights into the cancer's genetic landscape without needing a tissue biopsy.
