Abstract excerpt
Despite the introduction of new molecular classifications, advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is treated with chemotherapy supplemented with anti-EGFR and anti-VEGF targeted therapy. In this study, 552 CRC cases with different primary tumor locations (250 left side, 190 rectum, and 112 right side) were retrospectively analyzed by next generation sequencing for mutations in 50 genes. The most frequently mutated...
