Abstract:cellfree plasma DNA (cfpDNA) has been suggested as a useful tumor marker for its quantitative and qualitative tumorspecific alterations that reflect the biological characteristics and the progression and outcomes of tumors. Therefore, it has been used as liquid biopsy to detect cfpDNA in peripheral blood for the diagnosis, monitoring of clinical effects, and prognosis of malignancies
