“Our study on CEA and stage-III colon cancer has been published in The American Journal of Surgery.
- We proposed a novel score: CEA-Square (CEA2).
- Definitive treatment of stage-III colon cancer: Surgery plus adjuvant ChT.
- CEA-Square: preop x postadjChT CEA levels.
- Prognostic for early recurrence and OS.
Adj treatment or follow-up intensification according to CEA-Square?
Validation is required.”
Combined Preoperative and Post-adjuvant-chemotherapy Carcinoembryonic Antigen Levels are Prognostic for Early Recurrence and Survival in Stage III Colon Cancer.
