NEJM Sep 12

"CONCLUSIONS
Additional RAS mutations predicted a lack of response in patients who received panitumumab–FOLFOX4. In patients who had metastatic colorectal cancer without RAS mutations, improvements in overall survival were observed with panitumumab–FOLFOX4 therapy. (Funded by Amgen and others; PRIME ClinicalTrials.gov number,NCT00364013.)"
