Fragmentomic features of individuals with different cfDNA concentrations
The goal of this study is to explore fragmentomic patterns that vary between individuals of different concentrations of total cell-free DNA in plasma. We have selected a large cohort of individuals (ethnically Chinese men with a median age of 54 years, IQR 49-57) who were part of a screening of a large-scale clinical study to screen for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Differences in fragmentomic features provided insights into the modulation of cfDNA levels in blood circulation. Fragmentomic and machine learning systems adopted in this study have also been applied to assess the quantity of cfDNA species of clinical interest, including the fraction of circulating fetal and tumor DNA, from pregnancy cases and individuals with hepatocellular carcinoma, respectively.
