PURPOSE: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) amplification/overexpression (HER2-pos) is detected in 5% of RAS/BRAF wild-type metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRCs). Its prognostic/predictive role in terms of benefit from anti-EGFR/bevacizumab (bev) is debated. Similarly, the role of activating HER2 mutations (mut) is unclear. METHODS: We collected individual data of 1,604 patients with proficient...
