Analysis of KRAS and NRAS mutations in Greek patients with metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) on the registry of the Gastro-intestinal Cancer Study Group (GIC-SG)

Several studies show that mutational profiles could influence treatment decisions in patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC). KRAS mutational status was the first step in biomarkers development in the era of molecular targeted therapies. Recently, NRAS mutational status was identified as an independent...
