<p>The impact of panitumumab treatment on survival and quality of life in patients with <em>RAS</em> wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer</p>

Abstract: Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). It is currently approved for the treatment of RAS wild-type (WT) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in combination with chemotherapy in first- and second-line and as monotherapy in chemorefractory patients. This review will provide an overview of main efficacy data on panitumumab from its early development up to latest evidences, including novel perspectives on predictive biomarkers o… Show more

“…Panitumumab, a fully human mAb against EGFR, was approved for the treatment of metastatic CRC in combination FOLFIRI and FOLFOX in the first- and second-line setting [ 78 ]. Binding of panitumumab to EGFR leads to internalization of the receptor, induction of apoptosis, inhibition of cell growth, and decrease in the production of VEGF and interleukin 8 [ 79 , 80 ].…”

“… 18 EGFR overexpression occurs frequently in CRC, with 60–80% of tumors estimated to overexpress the receptor, 19 and overexpression is associated with a poor prognosis. Antibodies targeting EGFR (eg, cetuximab and panitumumab) are a preferred front-line treatment for mCRC, 20 provided tumor profiling for biomarkers associated with innate resistance to anti-EGFR therapy does not contraindicate their use. 21 However, biomarker screening may yield ambiguous results with tumor heterogeneity a confounding factor.…”
