ARID1A mutations confer intrinsic and acquired resistance to cetuximab treatment in colorectal cancer

ARID1A is an epigenetic regulator mutated in approximately 5% of non-hypermutated colorectal cancer tumors, however, its relationship with treatment response remains to be explored. Here, the authors suggest that ARID1A mutations may confer intrinsic and acquired resistance to cetuximab treatment.
