To help guide treatment decisions and clinical trial matching, tumor genomic profiling is an essential precision oncology tool. Liquid biopsy, a complementary approach to tissue testing, can assess tumor-specific DNA alterations circulating in the blood. Labcorp Plasma Complete is a next-generation sequencing, cell-free DNA comprehensive genomic profiling test that identifies clinically relevant somatic variants across 521 genes in advanced and metastatic solid cancers.

Background: Liquid biopsy (LB) is a laboratory test performed on a fluid sample aiming at analyzing molecular data derived from circulating cells and related entities, or from nucleic acids. This umbrella review aims to map and evaluate the evidence supporting the use of LB in medicine across different medical specialities and conditions.
Methods: We searched three repositories from database inception up to October 1, 2023 and we included meta-analyses of observational studies reporting data on the use of LB, compared to gold standard, and its accuracy (area under the curve, AUC).

Background: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a promising biomarker for cancer prognosis and drug development. A major challenge in the ctDNA determination method is discriminating ctDNA from highly similar but significantly more abundant wild-type DNA sensitively and accurately.
Method: An ultrasensitive qPCR method termed Triple Enrichment Amplification of Mutation PCR (TEAM-PCR) was developed to detect EGFR T790M mutation.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) showed promising potential for regenerative and therapeutic applications for several pathologies and conditions. Their potential is mainly ascribed to the factors and extracellular vesicles (EVs) they release, which are now envisioned as cell-free therapeutics in cutting-edge clinical studies. A main cornerstone is the preferential uptake by target cells and tissues, in contrast to clearance by phagocytic cells or removal from circulation before reaching the final destination.
