CpG island DNA hypermethylation and global DNA hypomethylation are hallmark characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC). Therefore, we aim to explore the effect of genetic variations within the genes that regulate the DNA methylation and demethylation pathways on outcomes in patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) treated with first-line therapy and enrolled in three independent, randomised, open-label clinical trials.

Abstract
CpG island DNA hypermethylation and global DNA hypomethylation are hallmark characteristics of colorectal cancer (CRC). Therefore, we aim to explore the effect of genetic variations within the genes that regulate the DNA methylation and demethylation pathways on outcomes in patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC) treated with first-line therapy and enrolled in three independent, randomised, open-label clinical trials.File in questo prodotto:
