Clinical trial results support ctDNA-guided therapy for bladder cancer, with the phase III IMvigor011 trial showing improved survival outcomes. Standardisation efforts are underway through position papers from professional societies and consensus guidelines. Nanotechnology advances and AI integration are poised to improve ctDNA detection sensitivity for liquid biopsy applications.
The FDA approved Tecentriq and Tecentriq Hybreza for adjuvant muscle-invasive bladder cancer with ctDNA molecular residual disease after cystectomy. The Phase III IMvigor011 study showed a 36% reduction in recurrence or death and a 41% reduction in death.
FDA approves Genentech's Tecentriq as first ctDNA-guided adjuvant therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer, and Venclexta plus acalabrutinib as first all-oral fixed-duration regimen for CLL.
New research highlights circulating tumor DNA as a prognostic tool in early-stage triple-negative breast cancer, while leronlimab demonstrates long-term survival signals in heavily pretreated metastatic patients through CCR5 receptor blockade.
