Clinical Application of ctDNA in Early Screening of Breast Cancer

Clinical Application of ctDNA in Early Screening of Breast Cancer

The investigators aim to evaluate the possibility of clinical application of ctDNA detection in peripheral blood of normal people, benign breast disease patients and breast cancer patients, so as to act as the new techniques or indicators of early screening of breast cancer.

• Breast cancer patients should be diagnosed with confirmed pathology after surgery, and with no clinical evidence of local recurrence or distant metastases. Complete staging work-up within 3 months prior to registration, which should be earlier than TNM IIA stage.
• Adequate organ function including normal red and white blood count, platelets, serum creatinine, bilirubin, and transaminases within normal range of the institution.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Known hypersensitivity reaction to the investigational compounds or incorporated substances.
• Local recurrence and/or metastasis of breast cancer.
