Natera Presents New Signatera MRD Data Across Breast Cancer Treatment Settings at SABCS 2023 (Businesswire)
P3 | N=5,637 | monarchE (NCT03155997) | Sponsor: Eli Lilly and Compan | "This study investigated the technical feasibility of ctDNA testing beginning prior to adjuvant CDK4/6i therapy and examined rates of ctDNA persistence and clearance in a highly selected cohort of 178 patients from the phase 3 monarchE trial, which excluded any recurrences in the first 24 months after surgery. Persistent ctDNA positivity during two years of treatment was found to be associated with a 100% risk of relapse. Additionally, none of the patients developed recurrence if they were initially ctDNA-positive and later became ctDNA-negative during treatment (ctDNA clearance). An analysis of an expanded cohort is ongoing, which will be more reflective of the intent-to-treat population and will include additional time points and recurrent cases within the 2-year treatment period."
