Background: Liquid biopsy allows the identification of targetable cancer mutations in a minimally invasive manner. In patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) is increasingly used to genotype the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA). However, the sensitivity of this method is still under debate. The aim of this study was ...
An intriguing group of familiar translocations are those which not always segregate with the “associated” disorder. Here we report the genetic alterations underlying a clinical phenotype characterized by haemolytic anemia and neuro-myopathy, seemingly associated with the familial translocation [t(3;14)(3q26.33;q14)]. Two affected probands and two unaffected relatives have been identified as carriers of this tra...
