Summary
Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) remains a major clinical challenge due to heterogeneous treatment responses and the development of therapeutic resistance. Current tissue-based molecular profiling is limited by invasiveness and the inability to enable longitudinal monitoring. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent a promising source of non-invasive biomarkers, carrying stable RNA and proteins reflective of tumor biology. This study aims to identify and validate EV-derived transcriptomic and proteomic biomarkers to monitor disease evolution, predict treatment response, and support personalized management of patients with mCRC.
