Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the era of personalized cancer therapy.

ABSTRACT: The heterogeneity of tumor is considered as a major difficulty to victorious personalized cancer medicine. There is an extremeneed of consistent response evaluation for in vivo tumor heterogeneity anditscoupledconflict mechanisms. In this occasion researchers will be able to keep pace withpredictive, preventive, personalized, and Participatory (P4) medicine for cancer managements. In fact tumor heterogeneity is a central part of cancer evolution,soin order to progress in understanding of the dynamics within a tumor some diagnostic apparatus should be improved. Latest molecular techniques like Next generation Sequencing (NGS) and ultra-deep sequencing could disclose some clones within a liquid tumor biopsy which mainly responsible of treatment resistance. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a
