In the discovery phase, CTC level in blood and 5 mRNA biomarkers in saliva (i.e., CCNI, Epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR], FGF19, FRS2, and GREB1) were measured for 140 NSCLC patients and 140 healthy controls, followed by developing a predictive model. Here, FGF19 is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
