WCLC 2024 | Improving early lung cancer detection with liquid biopsy TCR sequencing

Luis Montuenga, PhD, University of Navarra, Pamplona, Spain, discusses the use of T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing in liquid biopsy to improve early lung cancer detection. The study analyzed circulating TCR repertoires from patients with lung cancer. By identifying 197 cancer-associated TCR functional units (RFUs) and integrating them into a predictive model, the approach significantly enhanced sensitivity when combined with existing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and protein biomarkers. This interview took place at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in San Diego, CA.
