Abstract:
Cancer treatment has been continuously improved in recent year. Genetically targeted therapy has played a significant role in tumor reduction and local control. Genetic heterogeneity of colorectal cancer affects not only tumor development and progression, but also the selection and efficiency of targeted drugs, thus may become a breakthrough towards tackling the bottleneck in personalized medicine.
