Overall five-year survival for patients with stage-II colon cancer averages 75% after surgery alone. However, some of these patients have poorer outcomes, similar to patients with stage-III disease. The proposed use of the Oncotype DX assay is to improve risk stratification for recurrence in stage-II colon cancer.
II期结肠癌患者仅接受手术后的总体五年生存率平均为75%。然而,其中一些患者的预后较差,与III期疾病患者相似。拟使用的Oncotype DX检测旨在改善II期结肠癌复发的风险分层。
