Key points:
- 1. Cell-free DNA derived from tumor cells has a shorter fragment
length distribution in plasma compared to healthy cell-free DNA
- 2. Sub-fraction selection of smaller cell-free DNA fragments appears
to enrich for circulating tumor DNA

Summary
- PAGE affords selection of multiple adjacent fractions with high
resolution, but is SLOW!
- Nimbus Ranger provides rapid (<6 hours) collection of 2 non-adjacent
fractions with good recovery in up to 96 samples
- Selection of shorter cell-free DNA fragments may enrich for circulating
tumor DNA in some samples, while not negatively impacting MAF in
- ther samples

Summary
- Inter-tumor genetic heterogeneity requires a personalized approach for
detecting circulating tumor DNA
- Intra-tumor genetic heterogeneity coupled with the non-metastatic
nature of GBM requires an approach with high-sensitivity for detection
- f variants in cell-free DNA with a frequency <1%
