Summary

This study looks at genetic markers in tumor tissue to see if they can predict how well two different chemotherapy combinations work for people with advanced colorectal cancer. About 757 patients who have not had chemotherapy before will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. The goal is to understand why some patients respond better to one treatment than the other, which could help doctors choose the right therapy in the future.
