Clinical Research Highlights Bio-Rad Droplet Digital PCR in Cancer Treatment Monitoring

BIO
September 18, 2025
New research published in Clinical Cancer Research demonstrated a strong association between circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) changes and treatment outcomes for patients with solid tumor types. This aggregate analysis of eight clinical trials, focusing on advanced non-small cell lung cancer, was supported by Biodesix and utilized Bio-Rad's Droplet Digital™ PCR (ddPCR) technology. The study underscores the utility of Bio-Rad's ddPCR platform in high-sensitivity applications, such as detecting rare mutations and quantifying viral load. The technology's inherent ability to provide absolute quantification and detect low-abundance targets is a key differentiator in oncology research and patient monitoring. This publication validates the value of Bio-Rad's ddPCR technology in clinical settings, particularly for minimal residual disease monitoring. It reinforces the platform's role in advancing cancer research and potentially guiding treatment decisions, which is significant for Bio-Rad's market position in molecular diagnostics.
