Gravity-based microfiltration reveals unexpected prevalence of circulating tumor cell clusters in ovarian and colorectal cancer

Abstract Background Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are rare (a few cells per milliliter of blood) and mostly isolated as single-cell CTCs (scCTCs). CTC clusters (cCTCs), even rarer, are of growing interest, notably because of their higher metastatic potential, but very difficult to isolate. Method W...
