7	2021	Circulating tumor DNA sequencing in colorectal cancer patients treated with first-line chemotherapy with anti-EGFR Abstract Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) may reveal dynamic tumor status during therapy. We conducted serial ctDNA analysis to investigate potential association with clinical outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients receiving chemotherapy. Tissue KRAS/NRAS wild-type mCRC patients were enrolled and treated with first-line cetuximab-containing chemotherapy. ctDNA isolated fr\|om plasma were analyzed by next generation sequencing (NGS) with 16 targeted gene panel. Among 93 patients, 84 (90.3%) had at least 1 somatic mutation in baseline ctDNA samples (average 2.74). Five patients with KRAS or NRAS hotspot mutation in the ctDNA showed significantly worse progression-free survival (PFS) (p = 0.029). Changes in average variant allele frequency (VAF) in ctDNA showed significant correlation with tumor size change at the time of first response evaluation (p = 0.020) and progressive disease (PD) (p = 0.042). Patients whose average VAF decreased below cutoff (< 1%) at the first evaluation showed significantly better PFS (p < 0.001), and the average VAF change further discriminated the PFS in the patients in partial response (p = 0.018). At the time of PD, 54 new mutations including KRAS and MAP2K1 emerged in ctDNA. ctDNA sequencing can provide mutation profile that could better reflect tumor mutation status and predict treatment outcome.

6	2021	Detection of EGFR-SEPT14 fusion in cell-free DNA of a patient with advanced gastric cancer: A case report BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is the fifth most diagnosed cancer worldwide and the third most common cause of cancer-related death. In recent decades, increasing application of next-generation sequencing has enabled detection of molecular aberrations, including fusions.

5	2021	Targeted next-generation sequencing-based detection of microsatellite instability in colorectal carcinomas Abstract In the present study, we developed a computational method and panel markers to assess microsatellite instability (MSI) using a targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform and compared the performance of our computational method, mSILICO, with that of mSINGS to detect MSI in CRCs. We evaluated 13 CRC cell lines, 84 fresh and 119 formalin-fixed CRC tissues (including 61 MSI-high CRCs and 155 microsatellite-stable CRCs) and tested the classification performance of the two methods on 23, 230, and 3,154 microsatellite markers. For the fresh tissue and cell line samples, mSILICO showed a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 100%, regardless of the number of panel markers, Targeted next-generation sequencing-based detection of microsatellite instability in colorectal carcinomas リンクを見る	PLOS ONE	リンクを見る
4	2020	Blood-Based Detection of Colorectal Cancer Using Cancer-Specific DNA Methylation Markers Abstract Cancer tissues have characteristic DNA methylation profiles compared with their corresponding normal tissues that can be utilized for cancer diagnosis with liquid biopsy. Using a genome-scale DNA methylation approach, we sought to identify a panel of DNA methylation markers specific for cell-free DNA (cfDNA) fr\|om patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). By comparing DNA methylomes between CRC and normal mucosal tissues or blood leukocytes, we identified eight cancer-specific methylated loci (ADGRB1, ANKRD13, FAM123A, GLI3, PCDHG, PPP1R16B, SLIT3, and TMEM90B) Blood-Based Detection of Colorectal Cancer Using Cancer-Specific DNA Methylation Markers リンクを見る	Diagnostics	リンクを見る
3	2020	Liquid biopsy-based tumor profiling for metastatic colorectal cancer patients with ultra-deep targeted sequencing Abstract Analyzing cell-free DNA (cfDNA) as a source of circulating tumor DNA is useful for diagnosing or monitoring patients with cancer. However, the concordance between cfDNA within liquid biopsy and genomic DNA (gDNA) within tumor tissue biopsy is still under debate. To evaluate the concordance in a clinical setting, we enrolled 54 patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and analyzed their plasma cfDNA, gDNA fr\|om peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), and gDNA fr\|om available matched tumor tissues using ultra-deep sequencing targeting 10 genes (38-kb size) recurrently mutated in colorectal cancer. We first established a highly reliable cut-off value using reference material.
