Summary
This study looked at 76 adults with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific gene change (mutant K-ras). The goal was to find biological markers that can predict how well a combination of chemotherapy (FOLFOX) and the drug bevacizumab works. Researchers measured tumor response and survival times to identify which patients benefit most from this treatment.
