Differential clinicopathological and molecular features within late-onset colorectal cancer according to tumor location

Abstract: BackgroundSince there is a predilection of some clinical and molecular features for a given tumor location, we assessed whether this can be confirmed in late-onset colorectal cancer (LOCRC).ResultsRight colon cancers showed features associated with sporadic Microsatellite Instability: predominance of female cases and BRAF mutations, and an important mucinous component. Left colon cancers developed a higher number of polyps and multiple primary CRCs, showed the strongest familial component, and had better progn… Show more

“…In the most novel aspect of this work, the analysis of survival, the results obtained in overall survival, always higher in the RCC group, are comparable to those described in previous studies [ 22 ]. As for the breakdown by stages, there are articles published [ 26 ] that observe that this difference is independent of the tumor stage or that these differences are only significant in stage III in favor of LCC [ 14 , 27 ].…”

“…Stratifying CRC according to the criteria of location and age of onset is important and transcendental not only because it correlates with the resulting molecular-based categories, which were described in the 1990s [ 8 ] but also because, with confirmation in larger studies, new therapeutic algorithms can be defined according to their subclassification [ 22 ].…”

“…[31][32][33] Accumulating evidence demonstrate that associations between genetic alterations including CNVs and CRC risk differ for right-sided colon cancer and left-sided colon cancer (including rectal carcinomas), suggesting that carcinogenetic mechanism and progression of CRC may differ with tumor location. [36][37][38] In our study, we observed that the risk of colon and rectal cancers is different for CYLD and USP9X, which may provide the similar conclusion that different genetic pathways of carcinogenesis exit in right and left-sided colon cancer. In our study, we did not observe a significant association between CNVs of USP9X and prognosis of CRC.…”

“…Clinical and molecular features of global LOCRC and comparison between colon locations have been published before [ 4 , 9 , 10 , 11 ], and are summarized in Table 1 , Table 2 and Table 3 . The least frequent location was left colon (23%), whereas the other two locations were observed at equivalent rates.…”

“…Subclassification according to the age of onset and tumor location may have applications in terms of diagnosis, prevention and therapy. We recently published differential features for EOCRC and LOCRC separately, according to tumor location, and some interesting subsets within these age-of-onset groups became manifest [ 9 , 11 ]. More interesting, however, was the possibility that both factors, age of onset and colon location may differentiate CRC.…”
