Ultra-selection of metastatic colorectal cancer patients using next-generation sequencing to improve clinical efficacy of anti-EGFR therapy.

TL;DR: No improvement in the selection of patients for anti-EGFR therapy was obtained by adjusting the mutation detection threshold in tissue samples from 5% to 1% MAF, and response rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival were increasingly improved in patients with RAS wild-type, RAS/BRAF wild- type or quadrupleWild-type tumours treated with anti- EGFR.
Journal ArticleDOI

P-118 Cetuximab rechallenge in RAS, BRAF, EGFR-ECD wild type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with anti-EGFR therapies in first line: The CITRIC study

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the efficacy and safety of cetuximab plus irinotecan rechallenge in the third-line setting, in comparison to investigator's choice of treatment (excluding anti-EGFR therapy), in patients with RAS, BRAF and EGFR extracellular domain (EGFR-ECD) wild-type mCRC.
Journal ArticleDOI

418P Colorectal cancer lung metastases resection and its impact on survival in the oligometastatic setting

TL;DR: The real benefit of lung metastasectomy and perioperative chemotherapy in survival is still in constant debate and strong prognostic factors are still lacking as mentioned in this paper , however, the authors of this paper present a strong predictor for lung cancer lung metastases.
Journal ArticleDOI

408P Prediction of survival using the G8 scale frailty scale in a prospective series of elderly patients with colon cancer

TL;DR: In this paper , the role of the G8 screening tool in predicting overall survival in elderly colon cancer patients was evaluated, and the authors concluded that G8 is a useful tool to significantly identify patients with colon cancer with a worse prognosis, and it is an independent prognostic factor irrespective of ECOG, age and stage.
