Caris FOLFIRSTai
Use
Caris FOLFIRSTai is developed as an AI-based molecular predictor aimed at identifying the likely efficacy of chemotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). It offers oncologists guidance on choosing between two common chemotherapy regimens, FOLFOX+BV followed by FOLFIRI+BV or the reverse, based on the molecular profile of the patient's tumor. This test is targeted towards enhancing overall survival by aligning treatment with the regimen predicted to offer the best benefit.

Limitations
The test results should not be the sole basis for treatment decisions; they need to be interpreted in conjunction with clinical context. The efficacy of chemotherapy predicted by FOLFIRSTai may vary between patients due to numerous factors involving individual patient conditions and other variables not accounted for by the test.
