- Title
Scoring the Recurrence Score in Rectal Cancer.
- Authors
Tepper, Joel E.; Wang, Andrew Z.
- Abstract
The authors examine whether the recurrence score parameters validated for colon cancer could be used for rectal tumors. They discuss the recurrence score developed by Genomic Health which was validated as a predictor of recurrence risk in patients with color cancer, data suggesting the argument for chemotherapy for patients with high recurrence score risk, and the poorer discrimination of the recurrence score in rectal cancer for patients with Stage III disease.
