Combining copy number, methylation markers, and mutations as a panel for endometrial cancer detection via intravaginal tampon collection
Gynecologic Oncology ·doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2019.11.028

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess whether endometrial cancer (EC) can be detected in shed DNA collected with vaginal tampon by analyzing copy number, methylation markers, and mutations. METHODS: Tampons were collected prior to hysterectomy fro…

Detection of endometrial cancer via molecular analysis of DNA collected with vaginal tampons
Gynecologic Oncology ·doi:10.1016/j.ygyno.2015.01.552

OBJECTIVE: We demonstrate the feasibility of detecting EC by combining minimally-invasive specimen collection techniques with sensitive molecular testing. METHODS: Prior to hysterectomy for EC or benign indications, women collected vaginal…
