ESMO 2023 | BRAF testing in CRC: comprehensive approach across all stages, affordability, and global advocacy

Julien Taieb, MD, PhD, Paris Descartes University in Paris, France, advocates for comprehensive BRAF testing in all stages of colorectal cancer, not just in metastatic disease. Highlighting the dual role of providing both prognostic and therapeutic guidance, Dr. Taieb emphasizes the increasing affordability of these tests. He asserts the importance of widespread testing worldwide, across various disease stages, considering the accessibility and relatively low cost of the procedure. This recommendation aims to enhance the understanding and management of colorectal cancer at all stages. The interview occurred at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) 2023 Congress in Madrid, Spain.
