Core Tip	Gastrointestinal cancers are among the leading causes of cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide. So far, various targeted agents associated with predictive biomarkers are available or are under development for the selection of treatment in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Advances in high-throughput technologies such as next generation sequencing and the use of noninvasive materials for tumor characterization, such as liquid biopsies, will facilitate tumor molecular profiling and lead to the establishment of further targeted treatment therapies.
