Abstract

The paradigm for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) has shown great advances in recent years. With the increasing use of targeted therapies, including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody, the median overall survival (OS) of mCRC has been raised to approximately 30 months over the last 10 years [1]. Hence, for patients whose tumors are RAS wild-type, anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies (cetuximab, panitumumab) have shown clinical efficacy.
