Dr Stahler speaks with ecancer at ESMO 2016 about his research targeting FGF2 expression against chemoresistance in colorectal cancer (CRC) 3 cell lines, with expression levels have a potentially predictive value for patient response.

Dr Stahler notes that this was an exploratory trial, and considers avenues of further upcoming validation trials.
