[HTML][HTML] Analysis of circulating tumor DNA to monitor metastatic breast cancer

SJ Dawson, DWY Tsui, M Murtaza… - … England Journal of …, 2013 - Mass Medical Soc
Background The management of metastatic breast cancer requires monitoring of the tumor
burden to determine the response to treatment, and improved biomarkers are needed. …

[HTML][HTML] The somatic mutation profiles of 2,433 breast cancers refine their genomic and transcriptomic landscapes

…, SJ Sammut, DWY Tsui, B Liu, SJ Dawson… - Nature …, 2016 - nature.com
The genomic landscape of breast cancer is complex, and inter-and intra-tumour heterogeneity
are important challenges in treating the disease. In this study, we sequence 173 genes in …

Non-invasive analysis of acquired resistance to cancer therapy by sequencing of plasma DNA

M Murtaza, SJ Dawson, DWY Tsui, D Gale, T Forshew… - Nature, 2013 - nature.com
Cancers acquire resistance to systemic treatment as a result of clonal evolution and
selection 1 , 2 . Repeat biopsies to study genomic evolution as a result of therapy are difficult, …

Noninvasive identification and monitoring of cancer mutations by targeted deep sequencing of plasma DNA

…, D Gale, DWY Tsui, F Kaper, SJ Dawson… - Science translational …, 2012 - science.org
