Early diagnosis and swift treatment are critical to changing the lung cancer landscape. Aligned with this goal, blood-based testing is a valuable tool to support clinical decision-making from diagnosis through monitoring.

In this webinar, Dr. Gary Pestano will describe current applications of blood-based Droplet Digitalâ„¢PCR (ddPCRâ„¢) testing in the clinic. Among the key takeaways for attendees:

  • Case studies that support assay feasibility, development, clinical testing and regulatory approvals from a centralized laboratory.
  • Actionable mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that demonstrate concordance of blood-based testing with tissue, as well as accuracy with orthogonal technologies.
  • Robust performance of ddPCR in blood-based monitoring of rare variants at the level of individual patients, clinical trials, and meta-analyses of clinical cohorts.
  • Novel applications that enable precision approaches in the clinic.

A live Q&A session will follow the presentations, offering a chance to pose questions to our expert panelist.
