Abstract excerpt
Approximatively 8-15% of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) harbor mutation in BRAF gene. Recent advances in molecular biology enabled a better knowledge of the molecular heterogeneity within BRAF mutant (BRAFMT) CRCs, including high rate of overlapping with MSI-H status and detection of non-V600E mutations related to more favorable behavior. Treatment armamentarium has been rapidly growing in this...
