    Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.

    Table 1: Rigor

    Institutional Review Board StatementConsent: After they give written informed consent, patients are screened through a blood-sampling procedure to determine their RAS and BRAF tumor status according to plasma analysis of circulating cell free DNA, using Intplex technology20,21.
    RandomizationThe PANIRINOX study is a first line randomized phase II study, assessing the activity of a combination chemotherapy with fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and panitumumab ± irinotecan (FOLFOX + panitumumab vs FOLFIRINOX + panitumumab) in unresectable mCRC patients, selected by RAS and B-RAF status obtained from cirDNA analysis.
    Blindingnot detected.
    Power Analysisnot detected.
    Sex as a biological variablenot detected.

    About SciScore

    SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding. For details on the theoretical underpinning of rigor criteria and the tools shown here, including references cited, please follow this link.
