2026 Beijing Breast Cancer Forum | Professor Miao Liu: Current Clinical Applications of MRD in Breast Cancer and the Future of Precision Oncology
Although advances in diagnosis and treatment have substantially improved outcomes for patients with early-stage breast cancer, several important unmet clinical needs remain. Conventional risk stratification based on clinicopathological characteristics lacks sufficient precision to accurately identify patients at genuine risk of recurrence, resulting in undertreatment of some high-risk patients and overtreatment of others. During neoadjuvant therapy, current assessment methods are also unable to detect treatment response at the molecular level early enough to guide timely therapeutic adjustments.
