Thymidylate synthase haplotype is associated with tumor recurrence in stage II and stage III colon cancer
1 Feb 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor recurrence after curative resection is a major problem in the management of colon cancer therapy. Identifying molecular markers for tumor recurrence is critical for successfully selecting patients who are more likely to benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. We analyzed the value of thymidylate synthase (TS) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphisms as a prognostic marker...
