dramatic improvement in relapse-free survival versus placebo. 5 “It’s debated whether BRAF/MEK inhibition or anti–PD-1 is a better treatment option in the adjuvant setting, but it’s certainly clinically indicated to test for BRAF mutations in the stage

. BRAF encodes a kinase involved in response to growth signals. BRAF mutation leads to constitutive activity of the kinase. 33 BRAF V600E accounts for approximately 90% of all activating BRAF mutations. 33 Clinically, most CRCs with dMMR from

mutation is important for the proper selection of BRAF and MEK inhibitors. BRAF mutations have been grouped into 3 classes: class I comprises V600E mutations resulting in low RAS activity; class II includes BRAF fusions and non-V600E mutations, leading
