Description
The functional variant rs61764370 in the KRAS gene 3' UTR (KRAS-variant) was found to be correlated with platinum-based chemotherapy resistance in patients with Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC). 291 EOC patients without BRCA mutations were used in this study. Furthermore, the researchers tested a KRAS-variant EOC cell line (BG1) and found it has much greater platinum-based chemotherapy resistance than a non-KRAS-variant cell line (CAOV3).
