Cerebrospinal Fluid Cell-Free DNA-Based Detection of High Level of Genomic Instability Is Associated With Poor Prognosis in NSCLC Patients With Leptomeningeal Metastases

IntroductionLeptomeningeal metastasis (LM) commonly occurs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and has a poor prognosis. Due to limited access to leptomeningeal lesions, the genetic characteristics of LM have not been explored to date. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may be the most representat...
