KRAS and cancer: Methods: We developed mutation-specific ddPCR assays that were optimized for their use in real-world cancer management, covering 12 genetic aberrations in common cancer genes, such as EGFR, BRAF, KIT, KRAS, and NRAS. We assessed the limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of blank (LOB) for each assay and validated their performance for ctDNA detection using matched tumor sequencing.
