Overview
The study aims to evaluate the Plasma-SeqSensei™ Solid Cancer IVD Kit NGS diagnostic test (Sysmex) before its introduction into routine diagnostics. This is a test for research of EGFR mutations in cfDNA that needs to be evaluated in a patient population with lung adenocarcinoma already characterized for EGFR mutations by a molecular test of reference. The proposed study does not present any risk to participants.
