Popis: The therapeutic landscape of metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has rapidly expanded, and there is an urgent need to develop noninvasive biomarkers that can select an optimal therapy or evaluate the response in real time. To evaluate the clinical utility of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis in ccRCC, we established a highly sensitive assay to detect mutations in von Hippel‐Lindau gene (VHL) using a combination of digital PCR and multiplex PCR–based targeted sequencing. The unique assay could detect VHL mutations with a variant allele frequency (VAF)
Somatic genome profiling of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) and matched tumor tissues from patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma focusing on VHL mutations was conducted. By combination of digital PCR and targeted sequencing, thirteen VHL mutations were identified in cfDNA from 12 (21.4%) patients with a median VAF of 0.78% (range, 0.13%‐4.20%). Of the 28 patients with VHL mutations in matched tumor tissues, eight (28.6%) also had VHL mutation in cfDNA with a median VAF of 0.47% (range, 0.13%‐2.88%).
