Cell-free DNA analysis reveals POLR1D-mediated resistance to bevacizumab in colorectal cancer
22 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against soluble VEGFA, is an approved and commonly administered anti-angiogenic drug in patients with metastasized colorectal cancer (mCRC). The survival benefit of anti-VEGF therapy in mCRC patients is limited to a few months, and acquired resistance mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we employed whole-genome sequencing of plasma DNA to evaluate the tumor genome...
