Liquid Biopsy at Baseline Adds Prognostic and Predictive Value in mCRC – International Society of Liquid Biopsy
International Society of Liquid Biopsy shared a post on X:
“Liquid Biopsy at Baseline Adds Prognostic and Predictive Value in mCRC
From the FIRE-4 (AIO-KRK-0114) Study — Stintzing et al., Journal of Clinical Oncology 2025
Key Highlights:
- 13% of RASwt patients by tissue were RASmut on liquid biopsy (LB)
- RASmut and BRAFV600E mutations detected by LB were linked to significantly shorter PFS and OS
- Patients with RASmut had better outcomes with switch maintenance to bevacizumab vs continued cetuximab
- 15.3% of initially RASwt patients converted to RASmut at progression—more frequent with prolonged cetuximab
- LB detects heterogeneity and emerging resistance, reinforcing its clinical utility
This study confirms LB’s role in improving real-time decision-making in mCRC and suggests it may outperform tissue testing in mutation detection at baseline.”
