Abstract
Description
Circulating tumor cell technology is an enabling technology for recovery and
analysis of separated cancer cells in the peripheral blood. CTC technology
offers advantages like high sensitivity, high specificity, reproducible,
repeatable, and non-invasive diagnostic assay for guiding treatment decision
and improved patient triage. Circulatory tumor cells (CTC) are cancer cells
that get separated from the primary tumor or its metastases that circulate in
the peripheral blood. Metastasis the major cause of cancer deaths and CTC may
constitute seeds from metastases and indicate the spread of diseases. The
circulating tumor cells' analysis will allow early detection of metastasis
when it is less invasive. Molecular characterization of CTC enables the
treatment to be planned effectively. Removing CTC from the blood will limit
metastases after surgery or therapy.
Molecular characterization is significant from the point of view of developing
new methodologies for CTC detection, isolation, enumeration, and subsequent
genetic or proteomic analysis. Advancement in medical technologies is allowing
efficient removal of CTC from circulation and has therapeutic potential.
