The copy numbers of both the target (CYP2C8, CYP3A4) and the reference genes (ALB, B2M, BCKDHA, F5, CD36, MPO, TBP, RPPH1) established in primary lung adenocarcinoma by the qPCR-based method were congruent with those determined by next-generation sequencing (for 10 genes, slope = 0.9498, r2 = 0.72). This evidence concerns the gene CYP3A4 and lung adenocarcinoma.
