Three first-line trials compared chemotherapy + epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) or bevacizumab in RAS WT mCRC.
Latest data from these trials were included in a study-level meta-analysis.
Meta-analysis showed EGFRI + chemotherapy improved overall survival versus bevacizumab + chemotherapy.
EGFRI + chemotherapy also had benefits in terms of objective response rate and early tumour shrinkage.
Progression-free survival was similar between treatments.
