Abstract
•Plasma EBV-DNA is a prognostic biomarker in NPC clinical management.•Multiple- (BamHI-W) vs single-copy gene (CE-marked) assays can detect EBV-DNA.•Commutability between BamHI-W vs CE-marked assays is advocated.•BamHI-W vs three CE-marked assays agreed in plasma EBV-DNA quantification.•Whole blood detected more post-treatment EBV-DNA positive samples than plasma.
