Here is a tweetorial from our latest publication in @Annals_Oncology about longitudinal tracking of esophageal adenocarcinoma. #OesophagealCancer #EsophagealCancer annalsofoncology.org/article/S0923-… 1/8
We sequenced 245 plasma samples from 97 patients with oesophageal adenocarcinoma using a 77 gene pan-cancer ctDNA panel. 2/8 
Variants derived from previously characterised driver oesophageal adenocarcinoma genes had a significantly higher VAF than variants from other genes, indicating selection. 3/8

DNA from patients with Barrett’s oesophagus can show who is most likely at risk to develop oesophageal cancer up to *8 years* before cancer is diagnosed, improving detection and decreasing overdiagnosis. (2/8)
Using a low resolution whole genome sequencing method, we looked for signals of copy number changes in the DNA. This is common in tumours and important in oesophageal cancer. Samples from patients with early cancer showed more changes than samples from patients who had not. (3/8)
