ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of GPS score and CEA in predicting the prognosis of pa-tients with colorectal cancer undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Methods 120 patients diagnosed as colorectal can-cer in our hospital were involved and their baseline information include Height,weight,history,complication, course of disease,tumor size,pathological type,tumor location,TNM stage,vascular tumor thrombus and lymph node metastasis were recorded. Then,all of the patients were followed-up 18 months and patients with favorable prognosis were defined as the favorable group while patients with unfavorable prognosis were defined as the unfavor-able group. Cox′s proportional hazard regression model analysis was applied to evaluate the influencing degree of those factors on the prognosis of the subjects. The factors in predicting prognosis were calculated by ROC curves. Results The poor prognosis rate of patients with colorectal cancer after operation treatments was 37.84%. Cox′s proportional hazard regression model analysis showed that CEA(P = 0.035),GPS score(P = 0.023)have influenc-es on the prognosis. Conclusion GPS scores and CEA may assess the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer undergoing laparoscopic surgery,which is expected to be used as an indicator of predicting the prognosis of pa-tients with colorectal cancer undergoing laparoscopic surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To construct a prognostic nomogram for predicting the prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer ( CRC) , and verify its accuracy. Methods The clinical pathologic data from 438 CRC patients hospitalized in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soo-chow University during January 2006 and May 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. The independent risk factors for predicting the prog-nosis of CRC were determined by the univariate and multivariate regression model. The prognostic nomogram was established by the R-language software. Then, the nomograms of postoperative 3-year and 5-year disease free survivals ( DFS) were drawn, and compared with the actual status. The internal validation and accuracy of the nomogram were determined by the Bootstrap method and the calculat-ed concordance index ( C-index) , respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the nomogram for predicting the 3-year and 5-year DFS were compared with those of TNM system established by the American Joint Committee On Cancer (AJCC) (7th ed.) by using the time-dependent ROC curve. Results Among 438 CRC patients, the metastasis of CRC occurred in 233 patients, including 105 liver metas-tasis and 57 lung metastasis. Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that tumor differentiation degree, TNM stage, serum CEA level, serum CA19-9 level, neutrophil lymphocyte ratio ( NLR) and P53 level were the independent risk factors of CRC. The C-index of the constructed nomogram for predicting the survival rate of CRC patients was 0.678. The predicted 3-year and 5-year DFS by the no-mogram were highly coincident with the actual status. The analysis results of the time-dependent ROC curve showed that the sensitivity and specificity of the established nomogram for predicting the postoperative 3-year and 5-year DFS were higher than those of AJCC-TNM stage.Conclusion The established nomogram may accurately predict the prognosis of CRC patients, which may be helpful for clinicians to follow up or make beneficial treatment for CRC patients.

ABSTRACT
Objective To clarify the expression of DEPTOR in rectal cancer,and to further explore the relationship between the expres-sion level of DEPTOR and histopathology and prognosis,in order to provide reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of rectal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 102 patients who underwent radical resection of rectal cancer in our hospital from January 2011 to January 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.The expression of DEPTOR in cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were evaluated by immunohistochemis-try and immunoblotting.The patients were divided into high expression group and low expression group by the median value of integrated opti-cal density(IOD);the relationship between the expression level of DEPTOR and clinical,histopathology and prognosis was analyzed. Results The results ofImmunohistochemistry and immunoblotting showed that the expression level of DEPTOR in cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues,the differences were significant(P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there was no significant differences in gender, age,and BMI(P>0.05),and there were significant differences in tumor diameter,T stage,N stage,and differentiation between the high-ex-pression and low-expression group (P<0.05).The independent influencing factors of DEPTOR expression was analyzed by the Logistic re-gression model,which showed that T stage and tumor diameter were independent influencing factors of high expression of DEPTOR.Compared with low expression group,the serum CEA level in patients with high expression group was higher,the differences was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). There was no significant difference in serum CA199 level between the expression group and the low expression group (P>0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the expression level of DEPTOR was positively correlated with serum CEA level in rectal cancer patients (r=0.509,P<0.01).Compared with low expression group,the 5-year cumulative recurrence rate and the 5-year cumulative mortality rate in the high-expression group of DEPTOR were higher,the differences were statistically significant ( P <0.05). Conclusion DEPTOR is highly expressed and is associated with the degree of disease progression in rectal cancer,its elevation suggests a poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the inhibitory effect of haploid vaccine pcDNA-CEA625-667 and three tandem repeats of minigene DNA vaccine pcDNA-triCEA625-667 derived from CEA gene on tumor in mice bearing tumor and the changes of survival time. Methods:The experimental animal model of mouse liver cell carcinoma was established and the mice were immunized with pcDNA-CEA625-667 and three series of DNA vaccine. Some of the mice were treated with normal saline as control group. The growth curve of tumor growth curve was recorded and the effect of vaccine on the survival time of tumor bearing mice was observed. Results:Compared with the normal saline control group,the two vaccines were able to significantly inhibit the tumor size and growth rate ( P<0. 01 ) of CEA positive tumor bearing mice,the inhibition of pcDNA-triCEA625-667 vaccine group was significantly better than the pcDNA-CEA625-667 vaccine group (P<0. 01),while the two were not inhibited tumor growth in CEA negative tumor bearing mice. The average survival time of the pcDNA-CEA625-667 vaccine group was(48. 50±6. 73)d,and there was significant difference (P<0. 01) compared with the saline control group ( 39. 00 ± 6. 64 ) d. The survival time ( 48. 50 ± 6. 73 ) d of the pcDNA-triCEA625-667 vaccine group was significantly higher than that of the normal saline control group and the pcDNA-CEA625-667 vaccine group (P<0. 01). The survival time of CEA negative tumor bearing mice could not be prolonged in the two groups. Conclusion:Either the haploid or the three series of the DNA vaccine,were able to significantly inhibit tumor growth rate (P<0. 01) and significantly prolong the survival time (P<0. 01) of CEA positive tumor bearing mice,but they had no therapeutic effect on CEA negative tumor bearing mice.

Serial combined examination increased the diagnostic specificity to 92.86% and the positive predictive value to 89.19%,but its sensitivity and negative predictive value were decreased.Conclusion Combined detection of serum levels of CA199,CA125 and CEA has higher sensitivity and specificity than single-marker detection in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.
ABSTRACT
Circulating tumor markers have been paid more attention in the application of the treatment for breast cancer, the level of which has extended from protein to gene, including traditional tumor markers, HER-2 extracellular domain, circulating tumor cells, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), circulating RNA (ctRNA) and so on. As “liquid detection”, the detection of circulating tumor markers with real-time dynamic, easy operation, good reproducibility and other advantages are widely used in aiding early diagnosis, determining prognosis, prospectively predicting response or resistance to speciifc therapies, surveillance after primary surgery, and monitoring therapy in patients with advanced disease, The further study of circulating tumor markers may contribute to patient’s individual treatment.
