摘要: Background: The intra-tumor stroma percentage in colon cancer (CC) patients has previously been reported by our group as a strong independent prognostic parameter. Patients with high within the primary tumor have poor prognosis. Patients and methods: Tissue samples from most invasive part of 710 (52% Stage II, 48% III) participating VICTOR trial were analyzed for their tumor-stroma percentage. Stroma-high (>50%) stroma-low (≤50%) groups evaluated respect to survival times. Results: Overall disease-free times (OS DFS) significantly lower stroma-high P < 0.0001, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.96; DFS HR 2.15). 5-year OS was 69.0% versus 83.4% 58.6% 77.3% patients. Conclusion: This study confirms factor. parameter could be valuable low cost addition TNM status next current high-risk parameters such microsatellite instability used routine pathology reporting. When adding stroma-parameter ASCO criteria, rate ‘undertreated’ dropped 5.9% 4.3%, ‘overtreated’ increased 6.8% but correctly classified an additional 14%.
