In colorectal cancer, KRAS (exons 2, 3, and 4) and NRAS (exons 2, 3, and 4) mutations are associated with resistance to antiepidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibodies, and BRAF mutation is a molecular marker of poor prognosis. KRAS exon 2 and BRAF-mutated colorectal cancers have well-known distinct clinicopathological characteristics. Comparison of tumors with different RAS status (exons 2, 3, and 4 of KRAS and NRAS) based on their clinicopathological characteristics has never been established. All colorectal cancer patients with RAS and BRAF testing from 2011 to 2015 were included in this observational retrospective study. Patient and tumor characteristics were collected and correlation with RAS and BRAF status was evaluated. A total of 1735 patients with colorectal cancer were included. RAS-mutated colorectal cancers (n=1002), compared with RAS wild-type colorectal cancers (n=733), were significantly associated with male gender, classical adenocarcinoma subtype, well/moderately differentiated tumors, and microsatellite stable phenotype. KRAS codon 13-mutated colorectal cancers (n=171), compared with RAS wild-type colorectal cancers, more frequently presented classical adenocarcinoma subtype and microsatellite stable phenotype. In comparison with other RAS mutations, KRAS exon 3-mutated colorectal cancers (n=23) were associated with mucinous/rare histological subtypes and, most likely to located in the rectum. KRAS exon 4-mutated colorectal cancers (n=33) were more frequently associated with mucinous/rare histological subtypes. There was no significant association between NRAS mutation (n=37) and clinicopathological features. Colorectal cancers are associated with different clinicopathological features according to the type of RAS mutation. Consequently, these particular characteristics must be considered when assessing the prognostic value of RAS status in colorectal cancer.
