Liquid Biopsy-Based Biomarkers of Treatment Response and Resistance

Predictive biomarkers aid selection of personalized therapy targeted to molecular alterations within an individual's tumor. Patients' responses to targeted therapies are commonly followed by treatment resistance. Here, we survey liquid biopsies as alternatives to tumor biopsies to assess predictive and therapy response biomarkers. We examine the potential of liquid biopsies to meet the challenges of minimal residual disease monitoring after...
