Abstract excerpt
Loss of CDX2 expression has been proposed to be a prognostic biomarker in colorectal cancer (CRC) correlating with shorter overall (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Since metastatic disease, mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency, and the mutational status of BRAF are considered to be important prognostic determinants in CRC, the present study aimed to analyze CDX2 expression in correlation with these...
