Patient | Mutations Detected in Tissues | Mutations Detected in Plasma by the CRISPR | Mutations Detected in Plasma by ddPCR |
---|---|---|---|
1 | T790M | T790M (Mean fluorescence intensity: 100000) | |
2 | T790M | ||
3 | L858R | L858R (Mean fluorescence intensity: 99493) | L858R (10.13/µL) |
4 | T790M, L858R | L858R (Mean fluorescence intensity: 31419) | L858R (2 copes/µL) |
The cut-off of mean fluorescence intensity >25,775 and 31,702 was set up in 20 age and gender-matched cancer-free smokers for the CRISPR-Cas12a system to determine positive L858R and T790M in plasma, respectively. The cutoff value for ddPCR to determine positive L858R and T790M in plasma was defined as two copies/µL, respectively.
