© 2014 SEAP y SEC. The publication of this consensus statement is a joint initiative of the Spanish Society of Pathology (SEAP) and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM), which aims to revise and update the diagnostic and treatment recommendations published two years ago on biomarker use and the management of patients with colorectal carcinoma, with the intention of improving healthcare efficiency and use of resources. This group of experts recommends testing for KRAS and NRAS status in all patients with metastatic colorectal carcinoma being considered for anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (anti-. EGFR) therapy, as this type of treatment should only be used in patients not harbouring mutations in these genes. In contrast, testing for BRAF, EGFR, PI3K and PTEN mutation status is not necessary for therapeutic decision-making and therefore does not need to be done routinely.
