PIK3CA and BRAF mutations linked to worse outcomes in RAS wild-type mCRC on anti-EGFR therapy Skip to content The CRC Digest PIK3CA and BRAF mutations linked to worse outcomes in RAS wild-type mCRC on anti-EGFR therapy A meta-analysis of 1,478 RAS wild-type mCRC patients found PIK3CA mutations were associated with significantly worse PFS (HR 1.38) and OS (HR 1.58), while BRAF mutations
KRAS and BRAF mutations drive distinct chromatin and transcriptional programs Skip to content The CRC Digest KRAS and BRAF mutations drive distinct chromatin and transcriptional programs Isogenic cell models revealed that RAS pathway mutations reconfigure chromatin accessibility and modulate WNT signaling, with elevated TCF7L2 expression in BRAF-mutant tumors independently predicting worse overall survival.
