ABSTRACT: Purpose
Bevacizumab improves survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) under chemotherapy, but few predictive markers have been identified.Methods
To investigate chemosensitive single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of mCRC, we performed exome sequencing and RNA sequencing in 19 patients. A clinical association analysis was performed with the other 116 patients who had received chemotherapy to bevacizumab regimens. In vivo biodistribution studies and [(18)F]FDG-PET imaging were performed on mice bearing human colorectal cancer (HCT116 and SW480) xenografts after injection of bevacizumab with 5-FU, leucovorin, and irinotecan (FOLFIRI).Results
PPP1R15A rs557806 showed the most significant association with FRB-driven tumor IR in exome sequencing and
