Molecular Residual Disease and Adjuvant Trial Design in Solid Tumors

Advances in diagnosis and treatment have resulted in a high rate of survival for many patients with early-stage cancers. However, identifying who is at ongoing risk of relapse remains of high priority to direct subsequent adjuvant therapy. Multiple recent retrospective studies have shown that detection of tumor-derived materials in blood, in particular with circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis, can identify patients with residual disease...
