Brief Title: Liquid Biopsy Using Methylation Sequencing for Lung Cancer
Official Title: Clinical Utility of Circulating Tumor DNA Methylation in the Diagnosis of Primary Lung Cancer
Study ID: NCT04253509
Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate the utility of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) methylation sequencing in the diagnosis of primary lung cancer.
Detailed Description: Plasma sample of patients with and without lung cancer will be collected and analyzed using methylation-sensitive enzyme sequencing method. Diagnostic performance of ctDNA methylation sequencing will be compared with that of tumor markers (CEA, Cyfra 21-1, and NSE) combined.
