Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Recent evidence has highlighted the role of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) as a putative biomarker to predict EGFR inhibitor resistance. This study investigated the impact of plasma HGF levels on EGFR inhibition and the counter effect of MET inhibition in KRAS, NRAS, and BRAF (RAS/RAF) wild-type colorectal cancers (CRCs). METHODS: Plasma HGF levels were analyzed with clinical outcomes of patients with...
