Detection of the Emergence of RAS (Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog) Mutations in Circulating DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) in Patients With mCRC (Metastatic Colorectal Cancer) During Treatment With Anti-EGFR (Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor) Therapy

The analysis of circulating DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) to identify potential resistance mechanisms during anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) treatment is of great interest, as evidenced by the recent journal published by Corcoran in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine.
EmutRAS is one of the first studies that will specifically and prospectively evaluate the RAS mutational switch and its impact on the efficiency of the 1st line processing.
