摘要

An elevated cell-free DNA (cfDNA) level is often reported in patients with advanced cancer and is thought to represent nuclear material from a distant inaccessible tumor. cfDNA can become a valuable source to monitor tumor dynamics and evaluate genetic markers for predictive, prognostic, and diagnostic testing. DNA extraction and quantification were optimized with plasma collected from 20 patients with advanced cancer and 16 healthy controls. Plasma cfDNA from patients with advanced cancer was evaluated for TP53 genetic variation and methylation status of CpG islands in several promoters of known disease-related genes. Tumor biopsy and corresponding plasma specimens were collected from study participants to determine whether the same genetic variations were present in both samples. The cfDNA isolation method provided a lower DNA detection limit of 144 pg, equivalent to DNA from approximately 24 cells. Normal pooled human plasma cfDNA averaged 110 copies/mL of the ACTB gene. Extracted cfDNA was suitable for gene-specific variant detection, sequencing, and promoter methylation analysis. DNA extracted from tumor biopsy and corresponding plasma specimens from two patients with advanced cancer revealed an identical, nonsynonymous variant present in both samples. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the TP53 mutant phenotype in the tumor specimens. Quantitative measurement of cfDNA represents a useful biomarker to follow treatment outcome and is a valuable tool with which to characterize specific genetic alterations for both patient selection and personalized treatment.
