| Core Tip |
Postoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a simple and inexpensive marker, but its use for guiding adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer still requires caution. The retrospective design, variable timing of postoperative CEA testing, and absence of treatment–biomarker interaction analysis may limit the strength of the conclusion. Future studies should standardize CEA measurement and combine it circulating tumor DNA to improve postoperative risk stratification. |
