Diagnostic value of combined detection of plasma cfDNA concentration and integrity in NSCLC

  • Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine
  • Oncology

Aim: To evaluate the value of combined detection of plasma cfDNA concentration and integrity in the early diagnosis of NSCLC. Methods: Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to determine the concentration and integrity of plasma cfDNA in 71 NSCLC patients and 53 healthy people. Results: Combined detection of plasma cfDNA concentration and integrity had higher diagnostic power in differentiating NSCLC patients with stage I/II from healthy people than detection of plasma cfDNA concentration alone or integrity alone. The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection of plasma cfDNA concentration and integrity were 0.781, 0.62 and 0.85. Conclusion: Combined detection of plasma cfDNA concentration and integrity could improve the diagnostic value in NSCLC detection.
