Detection of Microsatellite Instability via Circulating Tumor DNA and Response to Immunotherapy in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: A Case Series
Pembrolizumab has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of metastatic or unresectable solid tumors that are microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient. Blood-based circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assays have been validated to identify tumors w...
