Description
In a retrospective study of 148 treatment naive metastatic colorectal cancer patients, patients with BRAF V600E (n=14) mutation treated with FOLFOX4 plus cetuximab were associated with a decreased progression free survival (7.2mo vs. 9.7mo, HR:0.39, 95% CI:0.21-0.72, P=0.0017), and decreased overall survival (11.7mo vs. 28.5mo, HR:0.23, 95% CI:0.12-0.41, P<0.0001), as compared to patients with wildtype BRAF.
