| Description: | The presence of the V600E mutation in the BRAF gene is associated with poor prognosis and non response to anti-EGFR therapy in advanced stage colorectal cancer patients. Studies show that colorectal cancer patients with wild-type KRAS failed to respond when treated with either cetuximab or panitumumab and experienced a shorter progression-free survival and overall survival. | |
