Minimal Residual Disease Overview

Minimal residual disease (MRD) refers to the small number of cancer cells that remain in the body after treatment. The number of remaining cells may be so small that they do not cause any physical signs or symptoms and often cannot even be detected through traditional methods, such as viewing cells under a microscope and/or tracking abnormal serum proteins in the blood. An MRD-positive test result means that residual disease was detected, while a negative result means that residual disease was not detected.

Minimal Residual Disease Diagnosis

Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Diagnosis refers to the detection of a very small number of cancer cells that remain in the body after treatment, even when the patient appears to be in complete remission. Advanced diagnostic techniques such as flow cytometry, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and next-generation sequencing (NGS) enable highly sensitive identification of residual disease. MRD diagnosis plays a crucial role in assessing treatment response, predicting relapse risk, guiding personalized therapy decisions, and improving long-term outcomes in hematologic malignancies such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma.

Minimal Residual Disease Treatment

Minimal Residual Disease Treatment focuses on eliminating the small number of cancer cells that remain in the body after initial therapy and are often undetectable using conventional diagnostic methods. Effective treatment strategies may include targeted therapies, immunotherapies, monoclonal antibodies, CAR-T cell therapy, stem cell transplantation, or maintenance therapy, depending on the type of cancer. Advances in minimal residual disease (MRD) detection technologies enable personalized treatment decisions, helping reduce relapse risk, improve long-term survival, and optimize patient outcomes across hematologic malignancies and selected solid tumors.
