Studies show that mutations in exons 2, 3, and 4 of the KRAS and NRAS genes reduce the effectiveness of these therapies, leading experts, including the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), to recommend genetic screening before treatment.\r\n\r\nThe RAS mutation analysis real-time assay utilizes allele-specific PCR, ensuring accurate detection using fluorescent hydrolysis probes. The panel is a qualitative test that detects somatic mutations found in exons 2, 3, and 4 of KRAS and NRAS genes.
