RecruitingDiagnostic testDetection of Minimal Residual Disease Using Exosomal miRNA Distant Metastasis MarkersGastric cancer (GC) is a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Even in patients undergoing curative surgery for non-metastatic disease, postoperative recurrence frequently occurs due to undetected minimal residual disease (MRD). This study aims to establish a highly sensitive and specific liquid biopsy assay using exosomal microRNAs (exo-miRNAs) to detect MRD and predict distant metastasis before clinical recurrence.
