Response assessment crudely telling regression%🔢 is missing the bigger picture for patients receiving immunotherapy.

💡Time to revise assessment methods to reflect the pattern👇🏾.

🆕As of April 2024, our liquid biopsy #ctDNA results🔢show up directly in the electronic medical record of a patient just like any other routine lab.

This is a huge step for our patients and all physicians to be able to see these results realtime/easy access.🙌🏾

#LiquidBiopsies

🎙️ LISTEN: Dr. Pashtoon Kasi MD, MS joined the Medscape InDiscussion #podcast series on #ColorectalCancer to discuss liquid biopsy and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for #ColonCancer bit.ly/3WyqZGN

#ctDNA 🧬can be broadly divided into tumor-informed🔬🆚tumor-naive🩸 platforms. Different lenses🔎of looking at the cancer through a blood draw.

Depending on the clinical question & tumor type, different types available.
