Abstract
We investigated the impact of time interval, primary vs . metastatic biopsy site, variant allele fraction (VAF) and histology on concordance of KRAS alterations in tissue vs . circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and association of concordance with survival. Blood and tissue were evaluated by next‐generation sequencing in 433 patients with diverse cancers. Altogether, 101 patients (23.3%) had KRAS alterations: 56, ctDNA (12.9%); 81, tissue (18.7%);...
