Description
Of the 275 patients assessable for KRAS mutation status, 49 (18%) were positive for KRAS mutation. There were no differences between treatments in OS, PFS, or response rates according to KRAS mutation status, and no evidence that KRAS mutation is a predictive factor for a differential survival effect between gefitinib and docetaxel.
