Core Tip |
The treatment with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies cetu-ximab and panitumumab in metastatic colorectal cancer is unfortunately burdened by the lack of clinical and molecular biomarkers that correlate with treatment response. Primary and acquired resistance have been shown to be the major culprits of the failure of anti-EGFR treatments. However, a deeper understanding of the molecular basis underlying both types of resistance has led to the proposal of several approaches designed to prevent, overcome or revert the drug resistance. Nevertheless, these approaches deserve further clinical investigation to allow us to use EGFR-targeted therapies more effectively in the correct population. |
