Enhanced prognostic value of combined circulating tumor cells and serum carcinoembryonic antigen in patients with colorectal cancer.
Background: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been investigated as a potential biomarker for predicting prognosis and monitoring therapeutic responses in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the sensitivity of CTCs detection is low, thus limiting the clinical utility of CTCs. We aim to examine the clinicopathological parameters that improve prognosis prediction for CRC using CTCs as a biomarker.
Methods: We enumerated CTCs in 186 CRC patients and associated the number of CTCs with the clinicopathological features and overall survival (OS) using a univariate and multivariate Cox regression model and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.
Results: The presence of CTCs from 186 CRC patients was significantly associated with stage, preoperational carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and CA19-9 levels. Using Kaplan-Meier survival and Cox regression analysis, patients with five or more CTCs exhibited significantly worse OS compared to patients with fewer than five CTCs. The combination of CTCs with tumor marker CEA has a better OS prediction than individual CTCs or CEA and serves as a more effective prediction model in patients with CRC.
Conclusion: We identified that patients with more than five CTCs exhibited significantly worse OS. Additionally, patients with the normal level of CEA, but who also had more than five CTCs trended towards a worse OS.
期刊介绍:
Journal of the Chinese Medical Association, previously known as the Chinese Medical Journal (Taipei), has a long history of publishing scientific papers and has continuously made substantial contribution in the understanding and progress of a broad range of biomedical sciences. It is published monthly by Wolters Kluwer Health and indexed in Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), MEDLINE®, Index Medicus, EMBASE, CAB Abstracts, Sociedad Iberoamericana de Informacion Cientifica (SIIC) Data Bases, ScienceDirect, Scopus and Global Health.
JCMA is the official and open access journal of the Chinese Medical Association, Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China and is an international forum for scholarly reports in medicine, surgery, dentistry and basic research in biomedical science. As a vehicle of communication and education among physicians and scientists, the journal is open to the use of diverse methodological approaches. Reports of professional practice will need to demonstrate academic robustness and scientific rigor. Outstanding scholars are invited to give their update reviews on the perspectives of the evidence-based science in the related research field. Article types accepted include review articles, original articles, case reports, brief communications and letters to the editor
