Comprehensive characterization of RAS mutations in colon and rectal cancers in old and young patients

Activating oncogenic mutations in KRAS and NRAS are common in colorectal cancer, which is a heterogenous disease. Here, the authors show that the RAS mutation spectrum is markedly different between colon and rectal cancer, and also different based on age of diagnosis and microsatellite instability.
