Correlation between NGS panel-based mutation results and clinical information in colorectal cancer patients.

ABSTRACT: Early mutation identification guides patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) toward targeted therapies. In the present study, 414 patients with CRC were enrolled, and amplicon-based targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) was then performed to detect genomic alterations within the 73 cancer-related genes in the OncoAim panel. The overall mutation rate was 91.5 % (379/414). Gene mutations were detected in 38/73 genes tested. The most frequently mutated genes were TP53 (60.9 %), KRAS (46.6 %), APC (30.4 %), PIK3CA (15.9 %), FBXW7 (8.2 %), SMAD4 (6.8 %), BRAF (6.5 %), and NRAS (3.9 %). Compared with the wild type, TP53 mutations were associated with low microsatellite instability/microsatellite stability (MSI-L/MSS) (P = 0.
