Clinical utility of combined low-pass whole genome and targeted sequencing in liquid biopsies for diagnosis and monitoring of pediatric solid tumors

We designed a liquid biopsy (LB) platform employing Low-Pass Whole Genome Sequencing (LP-WGS) and targeted sequencing of cell-free (cf) DNA isolated from plasma for detecting genome-wide copy number alterations and targeted gene fusions in pediatric solid tumors. A total of 143 plasma samples were analyzed from 19 controls (patients with non-oncologic diagnoses) and 73 patients, including 44 with bone or soft tissue sarcomas, 12 with renal tumors, 10 with germ cell tumors, 5 with hepatic tumors, and 2 with thyroid tumors.
