Sensitive droplet digital PCR method for detection of TERT promoter mutations in cell free DNA from patients with metastatic melanoma

BACKGROUND: Currently mainly BRAF mutant circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is utilized to monitor patients with melanoma. TERT promoter mutations are common in various cancers and found in up to 70% of melanomas, including half of BRAF wild-type cases. Therefore, a sensitive method for detection of TERT...
