Core Tip |
Colorectal cancer (CRC) represents one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers worldwide. It is the second leading cause of cancer death in Western Countries. In the last decade the survival of patients with metastatic CRC has improved dramatically. Due to the advent of new drugs and target therapies the median overall survival has risen from about 12 mo in the mid nineties to 30 mo recently. Many questions still exist regarding the prognostic factors and the predictive factors of response to therapy needing of right collocations and more clearness. |
