Twelve-month progression-free survival with sotorasib and panitumumab in KRAS G12C mutant metastatic colorectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks third in global cancer prevalence, with 40% presenting as metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). KRAS mutations in mCRC patients confer resistance to anti-EGFR treatments. Promising inhibitors such as sotorasib and adagrasib targeting KRASG12C mutations have demonstrated efficacy. Herein, we present a heavily pretreated mCRC case with a progression-free survival of 12 months with sotorasib and panitumumab. In 2017, a 27-year-old male presented with abdominal pain and received a diagnosis of stage IIIC KRAS G12C mutant CRC. Following surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, he developed metastases in the liver and lungs in 2020. Treatment with FOLFIRINOX and bevacizumab, and later FOLFIRI and bevacizumab, with surgeries and local interventions resulted in partial responses. Upon disease progression, sotorasib and panitumumab were initiated, achieving a complete metabolic response. After 12 months of progression-free survival, oligoprogressive liver lesions were surgically resected. This case highlights the remarkable outcome of a heavily treated KRAS G12C mutant mCRC patient. The combination of sotorasib and panitumumab, along with multidisciplinary approaches including surgery and local interventions, played an important role in our patient's survival.
