Tissue-specific cell-free DNA degradation quantifies circulating tumor DNA burden

Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) represents a non-invasive option to monitor cancer progression. Here, the authors perform deep sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA, and find that nucleosome-dependent cfDNA degradation at 6 specific regulatory regions is predictive of ctDNA burden.
