Description

Min Shi and a large team trace how colorectal cancer liver metastases evolve under chemotherapy, in this 2024 Europe PMC paper. Drug resistance limits treatment success, but how tumors and their surroundings change during therapy was poorly known. The team gathered multi-omics and response data from more than one hundred samples of forty-nine patients on bevacizumab-based treatment.

Genomic changes were small in most cases, while gene activity shifted markedly. Infiltration by liver cells and myeloid immune cells explained much of the acquired resistance. Mutations in SMAD4 and a gain on chromosome arm 20q marked tumors resistant from the start. Blocking STAT3 signaling restored drug response in resistant cells, a possible new combination strategy.
