We evaluated in 214 patients with primary colorectal cancer the prognostic value of the preoperative serum levels of CEA and CA195. For CEA these levels were above the cutoff of 6 ng/ml in 31.3% of patients, whereas for CA195 they were higher than 12 U/ml in 35.9% of patients. The simultaneous use of both antigens increased the sensitivity to 49%, which was significantly higher than that of CEA (p<0.001) and CA195 (p<0.01) taken singly. The mean preoperative CEA levels were significantly (p<0.001) correlated with Dukes’ stage only, while there was a significant correlation between preoperative serum levels of CA195 and Dukes’ stage (p<0.001), grade of differentiation (p<0.01) and tumor location (p<0.05). The results indicated that high preoperative serum levels of CEA and CA195 were associated with a shorter overall survival (p<0.0001). In addition, separate Cox multivariate analysis showed that preoperative CA195 was, after Dukes’ stage, the strongest factor to predict overall survival (p<0.0001).

Background It has been demonstrated that the Doppler Perfusion Index (DPI) is increased in patients who are at risk of developing liver metastases from colorectal cancer. It has been postulated that a circulating hormonal factor is involved in the relative vasoconstriction throughout the splanchnic bed. Endothelin-1 (ET-1), a potent vasoconstrictor which has been associated with tumor growth and is produced by colorectal tumors, may play an important role in this phenomenon. In this paper the prognostic value of serum ET-1 in colorectal cancer is discussed. Methods Preoperative serum levels of ET-1 were assessed in three groups of patients: group A underwent resection of the colorectal tumor and remained free of recurrence (n=20); group B developed metachronous liver metastases at least six months after colorectal resection (n=14); and group C presented with colorectal cancer and synchronous liver metastases (n=22). Results The mean (SD) serum ET-1 levels in groups A, B and C were 1.59 (0.41) pmol/L, 1.70 (0.32) pmol/L and 1.85 (0.47) pmol/L, respectively. These values were significantly different from those of healthy controls (1.22 (0.31), p<0.05). Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed no prognostic value of preoperative serum ET-1 levels. Conclusions These preliminary results demonstrate that serum ET-1 levels are raised in patients with colorectal cancer. Serum ET-1 levels do not seem to be of prognostic value for survival.

AbstractGene expression-based subtypes of colorectal cancer have clinical relevance, but the representativeness of primary tumors and the consensus molecular subtypes (CMS) for metastatic cancers is not well known. We investigated the metastatic heterogeneity of CMS. The best approach to subtype translation was delineated by comparisons of transcriptomic profiles from 317 primary tumors and 295 liver metastases, including multi-metastatic samples from 45 patients and 14 primary-metastasis sets. Associations were validated in an external data set (n = 618). Projection of metastases onto principal components of primary tumors showed that metastases were depleted of CMS1-immune/CMS3-metabolic signals, enriched for CMS4-mesenchymal/stromal signals, and heavily influenced by the microenvironment. The tailored CMS classifier (available in an updated version of the R package CMScaller) therefore implemented an approach to regress out the liver tissue background. The majority of classified metastases were either CMS2 or CMS4. Nonetheless, subtype switching and inter-metastatic CMS heterogeneity were frequent and increased with sampling intensity. Poor-prognostic value of CMS1/3 metastases was consistent in the context of intra-patient tumor heterogeneity.
