Exploration of Therapeutic Strategies for NeoRAS Wild-type Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Based on Circulating Tumor DNA

Summary

Following systemic therapy in metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC),RAS (including KRAS, NRAS and HRAS gene) status may change from a mutant(MT) to a wild-type(WT),a phenomenon known as "NeoRAS WT"mCRC.NeoRAS WT can be detected by longitudinal circulating tumor DNA(ctDNA) analysis.Therefore, this prospective phase II Study was design to explore the detection rate of peripheral blood ctDNA testing for NeoRAS WT and its guiding value for subsequent treatment for mCRC.
