To explore combination therapies that can overcome resistance to RAS targeted therapy in colorectal cancer.
Analysis of pre-treatment and progression samples from colorectal cancer patients
Investigation of resistance mechanisms related to baseline chromosomal instability
Evaluation of combined KRAS G12C and EGFR inhibitors
Combination therapies showed improved treatment response compared to RAS inhibitor monotherapy
Tumors with high chromosomal instability developed resistance more quickly
Amplification occurred as a recurrent mechanism of resistance
