Lung cancer (LC) is the deadliest malignancy worldwide. In an operable stage I–III patient setting, the detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) after curative treatment could identify patients at higher risk of relapse. In this context, the study of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is emerging as a useful tool to identify patients who could benefit from an adjuvant treatment, and patients who could avoid adverse events related to a more aggressive clinical management. On the other hand, ctDNA profiling presents technical, biological and standardization challenges before entering clinical practice as a decisional tool. In this paper, we review the latest advances regarding the role of ctDNA in identifying MRD and in predicting patients’ prognosis, with a particular focus on clinical trials investigating the potential of ctDNA, the technical challenges to address and the biological parameters that influence the MRD detection. |
