Liquid biopsy offers new tools for detecting recurrent breast cancer and monitoring its progression
Liquid biopsy performed on serum samples taken from breast cancer patients can provide increasingly accurate information on cancer progression and enable earlier detection of cancer recurrence, a new study from the University of Eastern Finland and Kuopio University Hospital shows. The findings were published in Cancers. Intratumoural heterogeneity is a major challenge for cancer treatment Breast cancer tumour cells are known to differ in both genetic and biological properties. This phenomenon is known as intratumoural heterogeneity. From the perspective of cancer treatment,
