A liquid biopsy signature predicts lymph node metastases in T1 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: implications for precision treatment strategy
The treatment strategies for T1 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients with or without lymph node metastasis (LNM) are different. We demonstrated that serum miR-20b-5p could predict LNM in T1 ESCC patients.
