Research progress on circulating tumor cells for early diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer is a highly malignant gastrointestinal cancer with a poor prognosis,and early diagnosis remains challenging.The use of reliable biomarkers can significantly enhance the early evaluation and management of this disease.Circulating tumor cells(CTCs)are released into the bloodstream and can be obtained easily through minimally invasive liquid-based biopsy,making them promising candidates for early tumor diagnosis,prognosis assessment,and monitoring therapeutic responses.This paper reviews the advancements in CTCs detec-tion technology and their clinical applications in pancreatic cancer over the past decade,both domestically and in-ternationally,which offer a new perspective on the early diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer.
