Defective Mismatch Repair As a Predictive Marker for Lack of Efficacy of Fluorouracil-Based Adjuvant Therapy in Colon Cancer

TL;DR: Data support MMR status assessment for patients being considered for FU therapy alone and consideration of MMR status in treatment decision making and patient stratification by MMR status may provide a more tailored approach to colon cancer adjuvant therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A prospective randomized trial comparing standard pancreatoduodenectomy with pancreatoduodenectomy with extended lymphadenectomy in resectable pancreatic head adenocarcinoma.

TL;DR: Both the decrement in quality of life and similar studies showing no survival difference make PD/ELND unattractive for further prospective investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA Mismatch Repair Status and Colon Cancer Recurrence and Survival in Clinical Trials of 5-Fluorouracil-Based Adjuvant Therapy

TL;DR: Patients with dMMR Colon cancers have reduced rates of tumor recurrence, delayed TTR, and improved survival rates, compared with pMMR colon cancers, and a subset analysis suggested that any treatment benefit was restricted to suspected germline vs sporadic tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
