Clinical Relevance of Detecting Molecular Abnormalities in Glial Tumor Exosomes

Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. The heterogeneity of tumors, the lack of reliable criteria for identifying different subtypes make their histopathological diagnosis and their management complex. The molecular profiling from circulating exosomes is one of the most promising approaches to better characterize gliomas.

We will demonstrate the superiority of detection by NGS of molecular abnormalities present in exosomes from glioblastomas, compared to detection by the Foundation One Liquid CDx test on ctDNA.
