Previous studies have shown that there are different methods used to detect the epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR ) mutation status in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) for advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients including the ADx-Amplification Refractory Mutation System (ADx-ARMS). We explored the performance of the ADx-ARMS in detecting the EGFR mutations in cfDNA.
