Simultaneous detection of EGFR amplification and EGFRvIII variant using digital PCR-based method in glioblastoma

Abstract Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) amplification and EGFR variant III (EGFRvIII, deletion of exons 2–7) are of clinical interest for glioblastoma. The aim was to develop a digital PCR (dPCR)-based method using locked nucleic acid (LNA)-based hydrolysis probes, allowing the simultaneous...
