Longitudinal therapy monitoring of ALK-positive lung cancer by combined copy number and targeted mutation profiling of cell-free DNA

Combined copy number and targeted mutation profiling could improve monitoring of ALK+ NSCLC. Potential advantages include the identification of treatment failure, in particular for patients without detectable mutations, and broader detection of genomic changes acquired during therapy, especially in later treatment lines and in high-risk patients.
