Use of ctDNA in early breast cancer: analytical validity and clinical potential
2024
Overview
Circulating free tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis is gaining popularity in precision oncology, particularly in metastatic breast cancer, as it provides non-invasive, real-time tumor information to complement tissue biopsies, allowing for tailored treatment strategies and improved patient selection in clinical trials. Its use in early breast cancer has been limited so far, due to the relatively low sensitivity of available techniques in a setting characterized by lower levels of ctDNA shedding. However, advances in sequencing and bioinformatics, as well as the use of methylome profiles, have led to an increasing interest in the application of ctDNA analysis in early breast cancer, from screening to curative treatment evaluation and minimal residual disease (MRD) detection. With multiple prospective clinical trials in this setting, ctDNA evaluation may become useful in clinical practice. This article reviews the data regarding the analytical validity of the currently available tests for ctDNA detection and the clinical potential of ctDNA analysis in early breast cancer.
