Conclusions: Analysis of ctDNA is a viable strategy for clinical management of mCRC patients. Although the OncoBEAM assay sensitivity is somewhat higher, the fully automated Idylla platform also has good performance, while being cheaper and much less labor-intensive, for the detection of RAS mutations in plasma, either at diagnosis or after progression when considering anti-EGFR treatment rechallenge.
