Core Tip Molecular profiling, including mismatch repair deficiency/microsatellite instability, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and consensus molecular subtypes, refines risk stratification and guides personalized adjuvant therapy in colorectal cancer. Persistent gaps between guidelines and practice stem from technical variability, limited evidence for novel strategies (e.g., ctDNA-guided escalation), and health economic disparities. Bridging these requires integrated artificial intelligence-multiomics decision tools, dynamic ctDNA monitoring, and health policy reforms supporting equitable implementation.
