Abstrakt: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have emerged as a promising biomarker in breast cancer, offering insights into disease progression and treatment response. While CTCs have demonstrated prognostic relevance in early breast cancer, more validation is required to establish optimal cut-off points. In metastatic breast cancer, the detection of CTCs using the Food and Drug Administration-approved CellSearch® system is a strong independent prognostic factor. However, mesenchymal CTCs and the Parsortix® PC1 system show promise as alternative detection methods. This chapter offers a comprehensive review of clinical studies on CTCs in breast cancer, emphasizing their prognostic and predictive value in different stages of the disease and provides insights into potential future directions in CTC research.
