Mutational processes impact the evolution of anti-EGFR antibody resistance in colorectal cancer

2020-05-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Anti-EGFR antibodies such as cetuximab are active against KRAS/NRAS wild-type colorectal cancers (CRC) but acquired resistance invariably evolves. Which mutational mechanisms enable resistance evolution and whether adaptive mutagenesis, a transient cetuximab-induced increase in mutagenesis, contributes in patients is unknown. We investigated this in exome sequencing data of 42 baseline and progr...
