New study published!

Author: Alan Tan

Title: Exploring the potential role of ctDNA as a biomarker in kidney cancer.

Date: February 7, 2025

Key takeaways:

ctDNA shows high concordance with disease progression in metastatic RCC.

Prognostic value:

  • MRD positivity linked to progression, while ctDNA negativity suggests indolent disease.
  • Could help monitor treatment response & recurrence risk.
  • Ongoing trials aim to refine its role in de-escalating therapy.

This could reshape RCC management, offering precision monitoring & personalized therapy.”
