<i>Bcl-xL</i> as a poor prognostic biomarker and predictor of response to adjuvant chemotherapy specifically in <i>BRAF</i> -mutant stage II and III colon cancer
2017-10-23

<h4>Background</h4> BRAF mutation occurs in 8-15% of colon cancers (CC), and is associated with poor prognosis in metastatic disease. Compared to wild-type BRAF ( BRAFWT ) disease, stage II/III CC patients with BRAF mutant ( BRAFMT ) tumors have shorter overall survival after relapse; however, time-to-relapse is not significantly different.
