Subsequent treatment considerations for advanced colon and rectal cancers Treatment of advanced CRC should be considered as a continuum of care. Decision-making at each stage of therapy should account for patient suitability and tolerability, tumour biomarkers, and prior exposure to chemotherapies and/or targeted agents Initial systemic therapy: Is the patient considered appropriate for intensive therapy? Consider the patient’s prior treatments. Have they received a previous: - Oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy? - Irinotecan-based chemotherapy? - Oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based regimen? - FP without oxaliplatin/irinotecan? Consider the results of molecular testing. Is the patient’s tumour: - KRAS/NRAS/BRAF wild-type? - HER 2 -amplified, RAS wild-type? - BRAF V 600 E-positive? - d. MMR/MSI-H? Please refer to the NCCN treatment guidelines for full details of the decision-making pathway and treatment options at each stage. BRAF, B rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma; d. MMR, deficient mismatch repair; FP, fluoropyrimidine; KRAS, Kirsten rat sarcoma; MSI-H, high levels of microsatellite instability; NCCN, National Comprehensive Cancer Network; NRAS, neuroblastoma rat sarcoma; RAS, rat sarcoma. 1.

Summary
Summary • ESMO and NCCN guidelines aim to provide guidelines for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of CRC based on the findings of evidence-based medicine • Both sets of guidelines provide specific treatment recommendations for patients with defined molecular markers (including RAS, BRAF, MSI and HER 2) • Management of CRC can be considered a ‘continuum of care’, and treatment decisions at each stage should take into account the patient’s clinical status and treatment goals CRC, colorectal cancer; ESMO, European Society for Medical Oncology; HER 2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; MSI, microsatellite instability; NCCN, National Comprehensive Cancer Network. 1.
