Circulating Tumor DNA Reveals Clinically Actionable Somatic Genome of Metastatic Bladder Cancer

Purpose: Targeted agents and immunotherapies promise to transform the treatment of metastatic bladder cancer, but therapy selection will depend on practical tumor molecular stratification. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is established in several solid malignancies as a minimally invasive tool to profile the tumor genome in real-time, but is critically underexplored in bladder cancer.Experimental Design: We applied a combination of whole-exome...
