EPCAM and colorectal carcinoma: Other EpCAM-dependent methods that have been used to detect CTCs from patients with CRC include: Adna Test, which uses antibodies against EpCAM and MUC-1 conjugated to magnetic beads [28], the CTC-Chip, a microfluidic platform containing microposts coated against EpCAM [29], and magnetic-activated cell separation (MACS), another anti-EpCAM immunomagnetic enrichment method [30].
