Abstract excerpt
The effect of age and sex on the predictive value of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been controversial, and the effect of specific gene mutations on the predictive value of CRC patients treated with ICIs remains to be explored. Our study analyzed the influence of the above factors on the overall survival (OS) of CRC patients receiving ICIs and explored the...
