- Abstract
Presence of five or more circulating tumor cells (CTC) in patients with metastatic carcinomas is associated with poor survival. Although many objects positive for epithelial cell adhesion molecules and cytokeratin (EpCAM+CK+) are not counted as CTC, they may be an important predictor for survival. We evaluated the association between these objects and survival in patients with prostate cancer.
