EGAD50000002238	Paired plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) samples were collected from 11 breast cancer patients before and after radiotherapy. Sequencing libraries were prepared using the Agilent SureSelect XT HS2 kit and sequenced on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform. Neo-RT (NCT03818100) is a non-randomised, single-arm feasibility study evaluating neoadjuvant radiotherapy combined with endocrine therapy in women with ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. Eligible patients had grade 1 or 2 disease (grade 3 permitted if chemotherapy was contraindicated) and a palpable tumour size ≥20 mm, for whom radiotherapy was intended to facilitate breast-conserving surgery.
