Biomarker-Guided Treatment Selection in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Critical Review of Established and Emerging Therapies. (PubMed, Crit Rev Oncol Hematol) - Sep 16, 2026 - "In dMMR/MSI-H mCRC, immune checkpoint inhibition is the established first-line standard, with pembrolizumab and nivolumab plus ipilimumab producing durable disease control...For BRAF V600E-mutant disease, encorafenib plus cetuximab with fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy is a first-line standard. HER2-directed therapy with tucatinib plus trastuzumab or trastuzumab deruxtecan and combined KRAS G12C and EGFR inhibition are established after prior treatment but are not approved in the first-line setting...In previously treated non-MSI-H/dMMR mCRC, STELLAR-303 was the first phase 3 trial to demonstrate a significant overall survival benefit with an immune checkpoint inhibitor-containing regimen, zanzalintinib plus atezolizumab. Other investigational strategies include additional immunotherapy combinations, EGFR-MET bispecific antibody therapy with amivantamab, T-cell-engaging bispecific antibodies, therapeutic cancer vaccines, cellular therapies, and..."
