Challenges of ctdna/tna analysis Dilution of tumoral/mutated DNA with wild type DNA Limited amount of cfdna/tna Small fragmented DNA Increase in the amount of information requested
Important considerations Optimize pre-analytical phase Blood extrac on Transport Plasma separa on DNA extrac on Adequate sample size to ensure minimum amount of cfdna/tna For some patients insufficient material

Molecular data should be discussed in multidisciplinary tumor boards
Take-home messages ctdna is a complementary strategy to tissue for molecular analysis that allows: Non-invasive analysis of tumor heterogeneity Dynamic biomarker monitoring NGS of ctdna provides a broad molecular analysis: SNVs, CNVs, fusions A comprehensive and dynamic monitoring of biomarkers is mandatory for real-time precision medicine Standardization and validation of the technology is necessary to ensure quality of the results Variant interpretation should be done in the potential clinical context in multidisciplinary teams
