Abstract
Cerebrospinal fluid tumor-derived DNA (CSF-tDNA) analysis is a promising approach for monitoring the neoplastic processes of the central nervous system. We applied a lung cancer-specific sequencing panel (CAPP-Seq) to 81 CSF, blood, and tissue samples from 24 lung cancer patients who underwent lumbar puncture (LP) for suspected leptomeningeal disease (LMD). A subset of the cohort (N?=?12) participated in a prospective trial of osimertinib for refractory LMD in which serial LPs were performed before and during treatment. CSF-tDNA variant allele fractions (VAFs) were significantly higher than plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) VAFs (median CSF-tDNA, 32.7%; median plasma ctDNA, 1.8%; P?
