Methylation extends the reach of liquid biopsy in cancer detection

Abstract

Measuring the methylation status of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma holds great potential for the early, noninvasive detection of cancer. Two recent papers published in Nature Medicine showcase the successful application of cfDNA methylation- based cancer detection to two highly challenging scenarios.
