Insulin-like growth factor receptor I (IGF-IR) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR-2) are expressed on the circulating epithelial tumor cells of breast cancer patients.
<h4>Background</h4>Circulating epithelial tumor cell (CETC) analysis is a promising diagnostic field for estimating the risk for metastatic relapse and progression in patients with malignant disease. CETCs characterization can be used as a liquid biopsy for prognostic and predictive purp...
