Abstract: With the coming era of targeted therapy, novel criteria such as the modified response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST), positron emission tomography response criteria in solid tumors (PETRCIST), Choi criteria and immunerelated response criteria have been proposed as standardized methods to assess therapeutic response. Biomarkers and circulating tumor cells may be considered suitable for the evaluation of response. These criteria may be useful for the evaluation of therapeutic response to tumors.
