Drug: Control group
Registration Number
NCT05427617
Lead Sponsor
Hunan Cancer Hospital
Brief Summary

This is a retrospective, observational, multi-center clinical study of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to guide late-line therapy in late-stage metastatic breast cancer patients.

Detailed Description

This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of plasma ctDNA mutation in guiding late-line treatment for late-stage metastatic breast cancer patients. Meanwhile, this study tries to evaluate the curative effect of ctDNA subtype-guided late-line therapy.
