摘要: We address the prognostic and predictive value of KRAS, PIK3CA BRAF mutations for clinical outcomes in response to active agents treatment metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). determined tumours from 168 patients treated mCRC at two institutions. All received 5-FU-based first-line chemotherapy outcome was analysed retrospectively. were present 62 (37%), 13 (8%) 26 (15%) cases, respectively. Multivariate analysis uncovered mutation as an independent factor decreased survival (hazard ratio (HR) 4.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.1–7.6). In addition, with BRAF-mutant had significantly lower progression-free (PFS: HR CI 2.2–7.4) than those whose tumors that carried wild-type BRAF. Among 92 using cetuximab salvage therapy, KRAS associated lack (P=0.002) shorter PFS (P=0.09). (P=0.0005) (P=0.01) also predicted reduced therapy. These results underscore potential mutational profiling identify CRCs different natural histories or responses. The adverse significance should inform patient selection stratification trials.
