Brief Summary

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranked the first in cancer incidence in Hong Kong and it is frequently lethal with heterogeneous drug responses and survival outcomes. Immune-based approaches targeting to enhance tumor-specific responses have been actively under investigation as therapeutic strategies. Currently, PD1 and PD-L1 blockade has shown promising results in clinical trials especially in colorectal cancer patients with microsatellite instability. This study aims to examine the role of PD-L1/PD1 in immune cell-mediated cytotoxicity in colorectal cancer patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Generation of candidate biomarkers PD-L1/PD1/GEP by laboratory assay qPCR for prognostication.

    Biomarkers PD-L1/PD1/GEP will be investigated by laboratory assay real-time quantitative PCR. The biomarker levels in tissue specimens and the association with recurrence-free survival will be analyzed for prognostication.

    Three years.
