description In this review, we present the current innovations in the field of metastatic colon cancer (mCRC). Tumor placement is important in the mCRC treatment decision, and KRAS, NRAS, BRAF mutation analysis is performed in terms of prognosis/predictivity.

Molecular evaluations have become extremely important in terms of prognosis and predictions in the treatment of mCRC, as in many tumors today
