Abstract Background Stage IV colorectal cancer (CRC) patients are heterogeneous with distinctive clinicopathologic features and prognosis. Radical resection of primary tumor and distant metastases is associated with improved survival outcomes in metastatic CRC. The value of palliative primary tumor resection is controversial. The present study explored which subgroups benefited more from primary tumor resection in metastatic CRC. Methods Between 2004 and 2015, patients with metastatic CRC were identified using the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results (SEER) database. Uni- and multivariable Cox regression analysis were performed to identify factors associated with decreased cancer-specific mortality. The subgroups were divided based on the independent prognostic factors. Results Age, marital status, race, serum CEA, histologic type, differentiation, tumor location, surgery of primary or metastatic lesion, site of metastases, number of metastatic sites, chemotherapy and radiotherapy were identified as independent prognostic factors. Patients with non-white race, normal serum CEA, non-signet ring cell carcinoma, well or moderate differentiation, surgery of metastases, isolated liver metastasis, single metastasis, receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy presented more survival benefit from primary tumor resection. Conclusion Subgroup of metastatic CRC optimizes decision-making and selected patients will benefit more from primary tumor resection.

e15078 Background: IL-6 and YKL-40, markers of inflammation and cancer growth, are high in serum in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) and associated with shorter overall survival (OS). We hypothesized that preoperative serum IL-6, YKL-40 and CEA are associated with disease free survival (DFS) and OS in patients with metastatic (mCRC) treated with liver resection. Methods: 457 patients (male/female: 267 (58%)/190 (42%), median age 65 [IQR: 58-71]) diagnosed with mCRC who underwent liver resection were included between March 1998 and February 2013. Preoperative serum samples were collected and stored at -80°C until analysis. Serum IL-6 (R&D Systems, UK) and YKL-40 (Quidel, USA) were determined by ELISA. For DFS and OS we estimated crude and adjusted hazard ratios (HR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) with Cox regression for each biomarker separately. The biomarkers were included as log2-transformed continuous variables and adjustment included mutual adjustment between the biomarkers in addition to adjusting for sex and age. Results: The median (IQR) preoperative biomarker levels were: IL-6 (3.5 pg/ml, 2.1-6.1), YKL-40 (75 ng/ml, 48-127) and CEA (5.2 kU/L, 2.6-18.8). Univariate analysis showed that high serum IL-6 and YKL-40 were associated with shorter DFS (IL-6: HR = 1.18, 1.06-1.31, p < 0.01; YKL-40: HR = 1.19, 1.08-1.32, p < 0.01). Serum CEA was not (p = 0.80). Multivariate analysis (all biomarkers) showed that high IL-6 was associated with shorter DFS (HR = 1.15, 1.02-1.29, p = 0.02), whereas YKL-40 (p = 0.08) and CEA (p = 0.51) were not. Univariate analysis showed that high preoperative serum IL-6 and YKL-40 were associated with shorter OS (IL-6: HR = 1.16, 1.03-1.29, p = 0.01; YKL-40: HR = 1.27, 1.14-1.42, p < 0.01). Serum CEA was not associated with OS (p = 0.16). Multivariate analysis (all biomarkers) showed that high YKL-40 was associated with shorter OS (HR = 1.19, 1.05-1.34, p = 0.01), whereas IL-6 (p = 0.25) and CEA (p = 0.26) were not. Patients with elevated serum levels of all 3 biomarkers had the shortest OS (HR = 2.12; 1.29-3.50, p < 0.01). Conclusions: Serum IL-6 and YKL-40 determined before liver resection may be valuable prognostic biomarkers in patients with metastatic CRC.

Abstract: Colorectal cancer is a serious health problem in Indonesia as well as in North Sulawesi. Serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a progmostic factor in patients with this disease. This study was aimed to obtain the correlation between the histopathological differentiation stage and serum CEA level in colorectal cancer patients at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. This was an analytical correlation study. Subjects were colorectal cancer patients who had preoperative serum CEA level and histopathological differentiation stage results. Data were analyzed with Anova test (variant analysis) and Spearman Rho test. The results showed that there were 58 colorectal cancer patients enrolled in this study. The patients’ data were obtained from the Digestive Surgery clinic and nursery room of Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. Of the 58 patients, 37 (63.79%) had moderate differentiated colorectal cancer. Related to serum CEA level, 23 patients (39.65%) had moderate differentiated colorectal cancer with serum CEA level 20-100 ng/ml. The Spearman Rho test showed that there was a positive correlation between serum CEA level and histopathoplogical differentiation stage of cancer (r = 0.877 and P = 0.001). Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between serum CEA level and histopathological differentiation stage of colorectal cancer. The better the differentiation stage, the higher the serum CEA level.Keywords: carcinoembryonic antigen, colorectal cancer, differentiation stageAbstrak: Karsinoma kolorektal (KKR) telah menjadi masalah kesehatan yang serius di Indonesia dan Sulawesi Utara pada khususnya. Kadar carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) merupakan salah satu faktor prognostik pada penderita KKR. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara derajat diferensiasi histopatologik dengan kadar CEA dalam serum pada pasien KKR di RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Jenis penelitian ini ialah analitik korelatif. Subyek penelitian ialah 58 pasien KKR yang mempunyai hasil pemeriksaan kadar CEA serum preoperasi dan pemeriksaan derajat diferensiasi histopatologik. Analisis statistik menggunakan uji Anova (analisis variansi) dan korelasi Spearman Rho. Data pasien diambil dari pasien yang datang dan kontrol di Poliklinik Bedah Digestif serta dari ruang perawatan Bedah Digestif RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan derajat diferensiasi tumor kolorektal terbanyak ialah diferensiasi sedang/moderate differentiated yaitu 37 pasien (63,79%). Bila dihubungkan dengan nilai CEA serum, yang terbanyak ditemukan ialah jenis diferensiasi sedang pada pasien dengan kadar CEA serum 20-100 ng/ml sebanyak 23 orang (39,65%). Uji Spearman Rho memperlihatkan bahwa kadar CEA berkorelasi positif dengan derajat diferensiasi KKR (r = 0,877 dan P = 0,0001). Simpulan: Terdapat korelasi bermakna antara kadar CEA serum dan derajat diferensiasi kanker kolorektal. Derajat diferensiasi KKR yang baik memiliki kadar CEA yang tinggi.Kata kunci: carcinoembryonic antigen, karsinoma kolorektal, derajat differensiasi
