Yes, because the Apostles' Creed, or the Nicene Creed, expresses the basic, absolutely necessary truths of our salvation, such as the Incarnation, our salvation through Christ, and then the Holy Spirit, the Church, the sacraments, and, basically, the Holy Trinity. This was the most basic, and then the more extensive creed of the Council of Constantinople. The Constantinople creed, which we pray on Sundays, is more extensive, especially refuting the Arian heresy by stating that the Son of God is consubstantial with the Father, and then the Holy Spirit also.
The question about the Eucharist in the first century was not questioned; there were no heresies about the Eucharist. Therefore, it was not necessary to include them. Heresies against the Eucharist started later, at the end of the first millennium, and then continued into the second millennium. These ancient forms of the creed were already established and essentially immutable. The Church did not change these venerable old formulas because of their age. However, later on, the Church may have given another profession of faith, affirming the truths of the Holy Mass, transubstantiation, the sacraments, purgatory, and so on.
