Abstract
PURPOSE A systematic literature review was conducted to estimate the global prevalence of Kirsten rat sarcoma virus gene (KRAS) mutations, with an emphasis on the clinically significant KRAS G12C mutation, and to estimate the prognostic significance of these mutations in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). DESIGN Relevant English-language publications in the Embase, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library databases (from 2009 to 2021) and congress presentations (from 2016 to 2021) were reviewed. Eligible studies were those that reported the prevalence and clinical outcomes of the KRAS G12C mutation in patients with CRC. RESULTS A total of 137 studies (interventional [n = 8], post hoc analyses of randomized clinical trials [n = 6], observational [n = 122], and longitudinal [n =1]) were reviewed. Sixty-eight studies reported the prevalence of KRAS mutations (KRASm) in 42 810 patients with CRC. The median global prevalence of KRASm was 38% (range, 13.3%-58.9%) and that of the KRAS G12C mutation (KRAS G12C) 3.1% (range, 0.7%-14%). Available evidence suggests that KRASm are possibly more common in tumors that develop on the right side of the colon. Limited evidence suggests a lower objective response rate and inferior disease-free/relapse-free survival in patients with KRAS G12C compared with patients with KRASwt or other KRASm. CONCLUSION Our analysis reveals that KRAS G12C is prevalent in 3% of patients with CRC. Available evidence suggests a poor prognosis for patients with KRAS G12C. Right-sided tumors were more likely to harbor KRASm; however, their role in determining clinical outcomes needs to be investigated further.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Detection of abnormalities in the KRAS, NRAS and BRAF genes is extremely important for proper qualification of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients for therapy with anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) monoclonal antibodies. However, data about prevalence of mutations in these genes, in different localizations of CRC tumors, are limited. MATERIAL AND METHODS We examined the frequency of mutations in the KRAS, NRAS and BRAF genes in 500 Caucasian CRC patients (200 women and 300 men, median age 66 years). DNA was isolated from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues using a Qiagen QIAamp DNA FFPE-kit. Analysis of mutations was carried out using the KRAS/BRAF, NRAS and BRAF Mutation Analysis Kit for Real-Time PCR (EntroGen) with the Cobas 480 real-time PCR apparatus (Roche Diagnostics). RESULTS KRAS mutations were detected in 190 (38%) patients, NRAS mutations in 20 (4%) patients, and BRAF mutations in 24 (4.8%) patients. There were no associations between age of CRC patients and frequency of KRAS, NRAS and BRAF gene mutations. These mutations were significantly more often diagnosed in women (55.5%) than in men (41%, p < 0.005). Tumors of the rectum and sigmoideum were the most often observed in both groups of CRC patients - with and without KRAS, NRAS and BRAF gene mutations. However, transverse colon, ascending colon and cecum cancers were the most often affected by mutations. CONCLUSIONS Our study showed that the occurrence of mutations in the KRAS, NRAS and BRAF genes is not accidental and depends on the location of CRC tumors.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the prognostic role of BRAF and KRAS mutations after adjustment for microsatellite instability (MSI) in Iranian colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHODS BRAF and KRAS mutations and MSI status were assessed in 258 Iranian subjects with CRC. Two hundred fifty-eight consecutive stages I-IV CRC patients, who underwent surgical resection of adenocarcinoma from 2012 to 2016, were enrolled in the research. Pyrosequencing and Cast-PCR methods were used to the detection of KRAS and BRAF mutations. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression were employed to estimate hazard ratios (HR) for the association between BRAF and KRAS mutation and overall survival (OS). RESULTS KRAS and BRAF mutations were detected in 36 (14%) and 15 (5.8%) cases of 258 patients with CRC, respectively. BRAF mutations that all comprised V600E and KRAS mutations was found in codon 12 and 13 (80.6% and 19.4%), respectively. KRAS mutations were detected in 19 (15.4%) patients of 123 microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC and it is significantly associated with tumor location and metastasis. BRAF and KRAS mutant vs. wild type of BRAF and KRAS, 5-year OS was 73.3% vs. 82.3% and 83.3% vs. 81.5% (long-rank P > 0.05), respectively. KRAS mutant vs. KRAS-wild-type tumors in MSS/MSI-L status CRC patients, 5-year OS was 78.9% vs. 90.4% (long-rank p = 0.046). CONCLUSION The present study revealed that BRAF and KRAS mutations were not related to the worse overall survival, while KRAS mutation can be a prognostic factor for overall survival in sporadic microsatellite-stable (MSS) status in Iranian CRC patients.

Abstract
![]()
Introduction: Early-activated RAS/RAF mutation status is a key molecular finding in colorectal cancer (CRC), while these mutations have been proposed as predictive and prognostic biomarkers. The present study has been designed as a longitudinal study to evaluate and summarize the different genotypes of metastatic CRC (mCRC), and assessing any association with the disease prognosis and clinicopathological characteristics. This study was performed in two main referral hospitals of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, over three years (2016-2018).
Methods: Mutations were detected by Idylla tests of KRAS/NRAS/BRAF among a total of 173 mCRCs, using surgically-resected specimens or biopsied samples. To evaluate the factors associated with overall survival (OS) and prognosis, the Cox proportional hazards model was used in two steps to estimate the outcome measures (hazard ratio, or HR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI).
Results: The nominal 1 to 5-year OS rates were 78%, 65%, 55%, 46%, and 42%, respectively. KRAS mutations in codon 12 was an independent significant prognostic factor, as the patients with codon 12 mutations had a significantly lower OS (P Log-rank=0.049) and a higher hazard of mortality (HR=2.30; 95% CI: 0.95-5.58; P =0.066). Also, the mCRC patients with liver metastasis (HR=2.49; 95% CI: 1.49-12.52; P =0.002) and tumors of the distal colon (HR=3.36; 95% CI: 1.07-10.49; P =0.037) had a significantly worse prognosis.
Conclusion: KRAS
mutation in codon 12 was an independent significant poor prognostic factor, and patients with liver metastasis had a significantly worse prognosis. Routinely performing specific oncogenic tests may help improve the patients’ prognosis and life expectancy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cause of cancer-related deaths which contributes to a significant public health problem worldwide with 1.8 million new cases and almost 861,000 deaths in 2018 according to the World Health Organization. It exhibits 7.4% of all diagnosed cancer cases in the region of the Middle East and North Africa. Molecular changes that happen in CRCs are chromosomal instability, microsatellite instability (MSI), and CpG island methylator phenotype. The human RAS family (KRAS, NRAS, and HRAS) is the most frequently mutated oncogenes in human cancer appearing in 45% of colon cancers. Determining MSI status across CRCs offers the opportunity to identify patients who are likely to respond to targeted therapies such as anti-PD-1. Therefore, a method to efficiently determine MSI status for every cancer patient is needed.
Results
KRAS mutations were detected in 31.6% of CRC patients, namely in older patients (p = 0.003). Codons 12 and 13 constituted 5/6 (83.3%) and 1/6 (16.7%) of all KRAS mutations, respectively. We found three mutations G12D, G12C, and G13D which occur as a result of substitution at c.35G>A, c.34G>T, and c.38G>A and have been detected in 4/6 (66.6%), 1/6 (16.7%), and 1/6 (16.7%) patients, respectively. Eleven (57.9%) patients had microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) CRC. A higher percentage of MSI-H CRC was detected in female patients (p = 0.048). Eight patients had both MSI-H CRC and wild KRAS mutation with no statistical significance was found between MSI status and KRAS mutation in these studied patients.
Conclusion
In conclusion, considering that KRAS mutations confer resistance to EGFR inhibitors, patients who have CRC with KRAS mutation could receive more tailored management by defining MSI status. MSI-high patients have enhanced responsiveness to anti-PD-1 therapies. Thus, the question arises as to whether it is worth investigating this association in the routine clinical setting or not. Further studies with a larger number of patients are needed to assess the impact of MSI status on Egyptian CRC care.

Abstract
The association between mutations of key driver genes and colorectal cancer (CRC) metastasis has been investigated by many studies. However, the results of these studies have been contradictory. Here, we perform a comprehensive analysis to screen key driver genes from the TCGA database and validate the roles of these mutations in CRC metastasis. Using bioinformatics analysis, we identified six key driver genes, namely APC, KRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA, SMAD4 and p53. Through a systematic search, 120 articles published by November 30, 2017, were included, which all showed roles for these gene mutations in CRC metastasis. A meta-analysis showed that KRAS mutations (combined OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.05-1.33) and p53 mutations (combined OR 1.49, 95% CI 1.23-1.80) were associated with CRC metastasis, including lymphatic and distant metastases. Moreover, CRC patients with a KRAS mutation (combined OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.13-1.47), p53 mutation (combined OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.06-1.72) or SMAD4 mutation (combined OR 2.04, 95% CI 1.41-2.95) were at a higher risk of distant metastasis. Subgroup analysis stratified by ethnic populations indicated that the BRAF mutation was related to CRC metastasis (combined OR 1.42, 95% CI 1.18-1.71) and distant metastasis (combined OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.20-1.91) in an Asian population. No significant association was found between mutations of APC or PIK3CA and CRC metastasis. In conclusion, mutations of KRAS, p53, SMAD4 and BRAF play significant roles in CRC metastasis and may be both potential biomarkers of CRC metastasis as well as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Background The use of biomarkers to target anti-EGFR treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is well-established, requiring molecular analysis of primary or metastatic biopsies. We aim to review concordance between primary CRC and its metastatic sites. Methods A systematic review and meta-analysis of all published studies (1991–2018) reporting on biomarker concordance between primary CRC and its metastatic site(s) was undertaken according to PRISMA guidelines using several medical databases. Studies without matched samples or using peripheral blood for biomarker analysis were excluded. Findings 61 studies including 3565 patient samples were included. Median biomarker concordance for KRAS (n = 50) was 93.7% [[67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [74], [75], [76], [77], [78], [79], [80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], NRAS (n = 11) was 100% [[90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], BRAF (n = 22) was 99.4% [[80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], and PIK3CA (n = 17) was 93% [[42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48], [49], [50], [51], [52], [53], [54], [55], [56], [57], [58], [59], [60], [61], [62], [63], [64], [65], [66], [67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [74], [75], [76], [77], [78], [79], [80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]]. Meta-analytic pooled discordance was 8% for KRAS (95% CI = 5–10%), 8% for BRAF (95% CI = 5–10%), 7% for PIK3CA (95% CI = 2–13%), and 28% overall (95% CI = 14–44%). The liver was the most commonly biopsied metastatic site (n = 2276), followed by lung (n = 438), lymph nodes (n = 1123), and peritoneum (n = 132). Median absolute concordance in multiple biomarkers was 81% (5–95%). Interpretation Metastatic CRC demonstrates high concordance across multiple biomarkers, suggesting that molecular testing of either the primary or liver and lung metastasis is adequate. More research on colorectal peritoneal metastases is required.
