MRD in PAAD Adjuvant Therapy

Our preliminary research has explored the detection efficacy of minimal residual disease (MRD) in pancreatic cancer. In patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing dual-agent adjuvant chemotherapy, the median recurrence-free survival (RFS) is approximately 13.9 months. Due to the high postoperative recurrence rate, short survival time, and intense systemic chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer patients, there is an urgent clinical need to more accurately identify which patients will benefit from adjuvant therapy. This study aims to evaluate the application value and guiding significance of peripheral blood MRD in the decision-making process for adjuvant treatment in patients with resected pancreatic cancer.
