Prognostic Values of Immune Landscape in Ras-Mutant Colorectal Cancer Peritoneal Metastases
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The peritoneal metastasis (PM) in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) associated with poor survival, especially in those with Ras mutations. However, knowledge on the mechanism of molecular biology in CRC peritoneal metastasis (CRCPM) is limited, and the impact of tumor immune microenvironment (TME) on PM pathogenesis and the prognosis of CRCPM remains unclear. Therefore, we characterized the TME of CRCPM and evaluated its potential diagnostic and prognostic values. This study involved 21 patients with metastatic CRC (mCRC), of whom 11 with CRCPM were classified into the experimental group and 10 with mCRC without PM (noCRCPM) were classified into the control group. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue of primary tumors from all patients was examined using the NanoString RNA sequencing system. The clinicopathological variables and TME biomarkers were compared using the chi-square test and Cox regression analysis. According to the results of multivariate analysis, a prognostic nomogram was generated, and its prediction ability was measured using the concordance index (C-index). Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and survival comparison between groups was conducted using the log-rank test.
