Detection of Circulating Tumor DNA in Early- and Late-Stage Human Malignancies

Chetan Bettegowda, +69 more
TL;DR: The ability of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to detect tumors in 640 patients with various cancer types was evaluated and suggested that ctDNA is a broadly applicable, sensitive, and specific biomarker that can be used for a variety of clinical and research purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emergence of KRAS mutations and acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy in colorectal cancer

TL;DR: KRAS mutations are identified as frequent drivers of acquired resistance to cetuximab in colorectal cancers, indicate that the emergence of KRAS mutant clones can be detected non-invasively months before radiographic progression and suggest early initiation of a MEK inhibitor as a rational strategy for delaying or reversing drug resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene copy number for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and clinical response to antiEGFR treatment in colorectal cancer: a cohort study

TL;DR: It is proposed that the response to antiEGFR treatment has a genetic basis and suggest that patients might be selected for treatment on the basis of EGFR copy number.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oncogenic Activation of the RAS/RAF Signaling Pathway Impairs the Response of Metastatic Colorectal Cancers to Anti–Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Antibody Therapies

TL;DR: It is shown that mutations activating the RAS/RAF signaling pathway are also predictive and prognostic indicators in mCRC patients, being inversely correlated with response to anti-EGFR mAbs.
