Purpose of review: Treatment options for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer continue to advance as the therapeutic implications of the molecular subtypes of this disease are becoming better understood. DNA sequencing and mismatch repair assessment are now standard of care analyses for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer Thi review describes important aspects of the biology of the clinically relevant molecular subtypes of colorectal cancer based on the current standard of care testing. In addition, the clinical treatment strategies available now and potentially in the future for these colorectal cancer subtypes are discussed.
Recent findings: Currently for metastatic colorectal cancer, standard of care molecular testing is done for mutations in exons 2, 3, and 4 of KRAS and NRAS, and BRAF V600E. Testing for mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency/microsatellite instability (MSI) status is also done. These aberrations are well known to change the clinical prognosis and guide patients' treatment strategies. Additionally, three new subtypes have emerged: PIK3CAmut, HER2 amplified, and NTRK fusions. With the addition of these emerging subtypes, tumor heterogeneity further validates the need to examine mCRC as a heterogeneous disease. Here we present recent exciting data from translational research and clinical trials exhibiting possible distinct treatment strategies for these different subtypes.
Summary: Altogether these data show promising treatment strategies for many of these well-known and emerging subtypes of mCRC. In addition, these also give better clinical prognostic and predictive information. We believe that as molecular testing expands PIK3CA mutation, HER2 amplification, and NTRK fusion molecular testing will be included in standard of care analyses. This incorporation of testing in clinical practice will generate further information regarding prognostic and therapeutic options for these and other CRC subtypes in the future.
