Here, we describe a novel microfilter device to capture circulating tumor cells in an efficient and low-cost manner. Then, we validated the safety and clinical utility of the novel microfilter device. We next performed mutation analysis from circulating tumor cells collected from lung cancer patients using this new device. Our results indicate that this microfilter system can be used to investigate the genome landscape of circulating tumor cells collected from lung cancer patients. Further, our results highlight a proof-of-concept demonstration indicating that circulating tumor cell can be used for mutation profiling during tumor evolution, therapy prediction, and monitoring, with immediate clinical applicability.
