Poor Survival Associated with the BRAF V600E Mutation in Microsatellite-Stable Colon Cancers
Wade S. Samowitz,Carol Sweeney,Jennifer S. Herrick,Hans Albertsen,Theodore R. Levin,Maureen A. Murtaugh,Roger K. Wolff,Martha L. Slattery +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the BRAF V600E mutation in microsatellite-stable colon cancer is associated with a significantly poorer survival in stages 2 to 4 colon cancer but has no effect on the excellent prognosis of micros satellite-unstable tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wade S. Samowitz,Hans Albertsen,Jennifer S. Herrick,Theodore R. Levin,Carol Sweeney,Maureen A. Murtaugh,Roger K. Wolff,Martha L. Slattery +7 more
TL;DR: The evaluation of a large, population-based sample of individuals with colon cancer strongly supports the biologic relevance of CIMP in colon cancer, however, the presence or absence of microsatellite instability has a major effect on the expression of this phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
