*Biomarkers first described in Nakamura, et al. [15] and Lee, et al. [12].

CCNE1 amplification, KRAS amplification, PIK3CA amplification, ARID1A mutation, and TSC2 null were only evaluated in the 32 patients tested using assay B (AlphaLiquid 100 kit).

Phase II or III clinical trials with “active, not recruiting” or “recruiting” status are listed.

Abbreviation: NCT, national clinical trial.
