Zusammenfassung:The invention disclosed herein generally relates to methods of assessing microsatellite instability in a subject. In an aspect, the present disclosure provides a computer-implemented method of assessing microsatellite instability of a subject, comprising: obtaining a quantitative measure of a plurality of microsatellite repeat elements from a blood sample of a subject; processing the plurality of quantitative measures to obtain a statistical measure of deviation of the plurality of quantitative measures; and detecting a presence of the microsatellite instability (MSI) of the subject when the statistical measure of deviation of the plurality of quantitative measures satisfies a predetermined criterion, or detecting an absence of the microsatellite instability (MSI) of the subject when the statistical measure of deviation of the plurality of quantitative measures does not satisfy the predetermined criterion.
