Liquid Biopsies in Ewing Sarcoma

Liquid biopsies enable noninvasive therapy monitoring in patients with solid tumors. Specific serum markers such as proteins, hormones, or enzymes released from tumor cells or in response to tumor growth can be used for quantification of the tumor burden. However, only a fraction of pediatric tumors has none of these serum markers, but tumor-specific genetic alterations represent reliable alternatives. Here we describe a method for using genomic fusion sequences as liquid biopsy markers in Ewing sarcoma patients.
