Dynamic ctDNA Assessment in Cervical and Anal Canal Tumors: Optimizing Follow-up and Clinical Outcomes

ctDNA involves the collection of peripheral blood samples for the analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). The samples are processed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and/or digital polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques to detect specific genetic alterations related to the tumor. The objective is to assess the presence and quantity of ctDNA, providing information on tumor burden and treatment response.

Participants will receive the institution's standard treatment during Phase I. If ctDNA remains positive between 8 and 12 weeks after the standard treatment, the participant will be invited to proceed to Phase II, which will consist of intravenous immunotherapy for up to 12 months, or until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Continuous monitoring with ctDNA testing will be performed during Phase II.
