Testing Modality Agreement of Pleural cfDNA in Samples With Positive Mutations Overall Agreement of Pleural cfDNA Overall Kappa Statistic of Agreement of Pleural cfDNA
Kappa (95% CI)
Overall P Value for Agreement of Pleural cfDNA
Pleural cytology, n/N (%) 9/9 (100) 17/33 (51.5) 0.11 (−0.16, 0.39) .44
Biopsy, n/N (%) 17/19 (89.4) 19/25 (76) 0.32 (−0.01, 0.65) .21
Plasma cfDNA, n/N (%) 16/17 (94.1) 22/32 (68.8) 0.25 (−0.20, 0.70) .06

cfDNA = cell-free DNA; n = concordant samples.
