Abstract excerpt
KRAS is mutationally activated in 45%-50% of colorectal cancer (CRC) cases, and while KRAS-targeted therapies have shown clinical promise, drug resistance limits their efficacy. To explore the mechanisms underlying KRAS inhibitor resistance, we use targeted exome sequencing and spatial transcriptomics on patient-matched CRC biopsies following combined treatment with KRASG12C and EGFR inhibitors. We show that...
