Oncology | Use of Immune Therapy to Treat Metastatic Colorectal CA

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths with poor 5-year survival rates for patients with metastatic disease. Patients with DNA mismatch repair-deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) are a distinct biomarker-defined population who may benefit less from conventional therapy compared with patients with MMR-proficient/microsatellite stable mCRC.
