Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • The characteristics of carcinogenesis-related molecular markers in colorectal adenoma and CRC

    Using endoscopically biopsied specimens, multiple carcinogenic markers were investigated including KRAS and BRAF mutation, PD-L1, EGFR, IL-1b, NLRP3, Caspase-1, p53 expression, Microinstability (MSS, MSI-L, MSI-H), PD-L1, DNA mismatch repair proteins (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2), CIMP markers (p16, MINT1, MINT2, MINT31, hMLH1), promoter methylation of p16, RUNX3, NEUROG1. CIMP was assessed by methylation-specific PCR for five methylation panel markers (p16, MINT1, MINT2, MINT31, hMLH1), and MSI status was validated by PCR using five NCI markers (BAT-26, BAT-25, D5S346, D17S250, and S2S123). KRAS and BRAF mutation was analyzed by direct sequencing using sequence-specific primers from the acquired biopsy specimens. PD-L1, EGFR, MMR expression was examined using immunohistochemistry.

    through study completion, an average of 1 year

  • Fecal microbiota analysis in patients with colorectal adenoma and CRC

    Using next-generation sequencing technique, fecal microbiota of patients with colorectal adenoma and CRC as well as healthy control was evaluated to verify carcinogenesis-related microbiota.
