摘要

Using biologically available markers to guide treatment decisions in colorectal cancer care is becoming increasingly common, though our understanding of these biomarkers is in its infancy. In this article, we will discuss how this area is rapidly changing, review important biomarkers being used currently, and explain how the results influence clinical decision-making. We will also briefly discuss the possibility of a liquid biopsy and explore several exciting and new options.
