BEAMing: beads, emulsions, amplification and magnetics; cfDNA: circulating cell-free DNA; bTMB: blood tumor mutational burden; EpCAM: epithelial cell adhesion molecule; miRNA: microRNA; NGS: next-generation sequencing; NSCLC: non-small cell lung cancer; PD-L1: programmed death-ligand 1; TCR: T cell repertoire. Here, EPCAM is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
