Abstract
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is emerging as a transformative biomarker in the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This review focuses on its role in detecting minimal residual disease (MRD), predicting treatment response, and guiding therapeutic decision-making in radiation oncology and immunotherapy. Key studies demonstrate ctDNA's prognostic value, particularly in identifying relapse risk and refining patient stratification for curative-intent and consolidative treatments. Future research is essential to standardize ctDNA assays, optimize integration into clinical workflows, and expand its clinical utility. This biomarker holds substantial promise by enabling non-invasive, real-time monitoring and improving outcomes for patients with NSCLC and beyond.
期刊介绍：
Hematology/Oncology Clinics updates you on the latest trends in patient management, keeps you up to date on the newest advances, and provides a sound basis for choosing treatment options. Under the direction of an experienced guest editor, each issue focuses on a single topic in hematology and oncology, including hemostasis and thrombosis, molecular and cellular basis of hematology, coagulation disorders, and cancers—bone, gastrointestinal, head and neck, lymphomas, neuroendocrine, breast, renal cell, melanoma, and more.
