Multi-institutional collaboration to characterize 5hmC in prostate cancer, both tumor biopsies and cfDNA.

This study used pull-down sequencing to measure 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) levels in tissue biopsy specimens from patients with localized and metastatic castration-resistant (mCRPC) prostate cancer. For a subset of the cohort, the same technique was used to sequence cell-free DNA (cfDNA) isolated from patient plasma. To assess 5hmC levels in cfDNA from a larger number of specimens, plasma samples from another mCRPC cohort were also assayed with this method. The larger cohort of cfDNA samples was further anlayzed with a targeted sequencing gene panel.
