Early HPV ctDNA Kinetics and Imaging Biomarkers Predict Therapeutic Response in p16+Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Yue Cao et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the kinetics of human papillomavirus circulating tumor DNA and its association with tumor progression after chemoradiation. The results showed that early ctDNA kinetics may predict therapy response in stage III oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Circulating cell-free tumor human papillomavirus DNA is a promising biomarker in cervical cancer

Lars Sivars et al.

Summary: This study aimed to analyze the detectability of cell-free human papillomavirus DNA (ctHPV DNA) in patients with cervical cancer or pre-malignant lesions and its correlation with patient and tumor characteristics and outcome. The results showed a high proportion of ctHPV DNA detection in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer, and its levels were correlated with disease staging. Furthermore, the presence of ctHPV DNA was associated with worse progression-free survival in patients.

Summary: In patients with HPV16-related HNSCC, posttreatment ctHPV16DNA has a higher value in predicting treatment failure compared to PET-CT. Patients with detectable posttreatment ctHPV16DNA have a higher risk of treatment failure regardless of metabolic response.

Genotype-Specific Differences in Circulating Tumor DNA Levels in Advanced NSCLC

Vincent K. Lam et al.

Summary: The study found a moderate but significant correlation between ctDNA variant allele frequency and imaging measures of tumor burden, with varying strengths based on tumor genotypes. Factors such as TP53 and EGFR mutations, visceral metastasis, and tumor burden were independent predictors of increased ctDNA shedding, suggesting that ctDNA levels are affected by both tumor burden and genotype.

Cell-free tumour DNA analysis detects copy number alterations in gastro-oesophageal cancer patients

Karin Wallander et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that low-coverage whole-genome sequencing could serve as an effective tool for analyzing cell-free tumor DNA and total CNAs in plasma from patients with gastro-esophageal cancer. Additionally, some patients showed corresponding CNAs in plasma as seen in tumor tissue, indicating the potential clinical relevance of this liquid biopsy approach.

Characterisation of dysplastic liver nodules using low-pass DNA sequencing and detection of chromosome arm-level abnormalities in blood-derived cell-free DNA

Waleed Fateen et al.

Summary: Analysis showed that chromosome arm-level SCNAs on 1q+ or 8q+ were associated with high-risk liver pathology. These alterations could be detected in blood-derived cell-free DNA and may serve as a potential early cancer screening tool for patients with liver cirrhosis in the future.

Cell-free DNA ultra-low-pass whole genome sequencing to distinguish malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) from its benign precursor lesion: A cross-sectional study

Jeffrey J. Szymanski et al.

Summary: This study utilized fragment size analysis and ultra-low-pass whole genome sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA to distinguish between MPNST and PN in NF1 patients. A noninvasive classifier was developed with 86% pretreatment accuracy and 89% accuracy on serial analysis to differentiate MPNST from PN.

HPV ctDNA detection of high-risk HPV types during chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer

L. Cabel et al.

Summary: The study designed HPV droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assays for blood detection and monitored blood HPV circulating tumor DNA (HPV ctDNA) levels in patients with LACC undergoing CRT. Results showed successful detection of HPV ctDNA in 69% of patients before CRT, with a correlation between HPV-ctDNA levels and HPV copy number in tumors. Detection of HPV-ctDNA before CRT was associated with tumor stage and lymph node status, while positive detection during follow-up was linked to lower disease-free and overall survival rates.
