TREAT ctDNA: early elacestrant intervention for ER+/HER2- breast cancer
Michail Ignatiadis, MD, PhD, Jules Bordet Institute, Brussels, Belgium, comments on the TREAT ctDNA trial (NCT05512364) of elacestrant versus standard endocrine therapy in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer experiencing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) relapse. By using ctDNA as a biomarker, the trial aims to detect molecular recurrence early, potentially delaying distant metastasis onset. The study monitors outcomes such as distant metastasis-free survival, quality of life, and overall survival, with follow-up using imaging modalities over three years across multiple countries.
