HOXA13 serves as a biomarker to predict neoadjuvant therapy efficacy in advanced colorectal cancer patients

Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) for advanced colorectal cancer (ACRC) is a kind of well-evidenced therapy, yet a portion of ACRC patients have poor therapeutic response. To date, no suitable biomarker used for assessing NAT efficacy has been reported. Here, we collect 72 colonoscopy biopsy tissue specimen...

Description
Summary:Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) for advanced colorectal cancer (ACRC) is a kind of well-evidenced therapy, yet a portion of ACRC patients have poor therapeutic response. To date, no suitable biomarker used for assessing NAT efficacy has been reported. Here, we collect 72 colonoscopy biopsy tissue specimens from ACRC patients before undergoing NAT and investigate the relationship between HOXA13 expression and NAT efficacy. The results show that HOXA13 expression in pretreated tumor specimens is negatively associated with tumor regression (
