Featured Abstract
Role of Deficient DNA Mismatch Repair Status in Patients With Stage III Colon Cancer Treated With FOLFOX Adjuvant Chemotherapy
The prognostic impact of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) status in stage III colon cancer patients receiving FOLFOX (folinic acid, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) adjuvant chemotherapy remains controversial. Mayo Clinic researchers conducted a study to determine the association of MMR status with disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with stage III colon cancer treated with FOLFOX. Based on the results, the deficient MMR phenotype remains a favorable prognostic factor in patients with stage III colon cancer receiving FOLFOX adjuvant chemotherapy. The review was published in Jama Oncology.
