Background: In v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 (BRAF)-mutant colorectal cancer (CRC), encorafenib-cetuximab has been established as standard second-line therapy, but not all patients respond and the duration of response is relatively short. Overcoming intrinsic or acquired resistance to BRAF/EGFR inhibitors is crucial for enhancing treatment outcomes in metastatic BRAF-mutated CRC. The aim of the study is to investigate the resistance mechanisms in BRAF-mutant CRC patient refractory to BRAF/EGFR targeted therapy.
