Tumor Replication Error (RER) Status and Outcome in a Colon Cancer Adjuvant Chemotherapy Trial


OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the relationship between disease free survival, overall survival, and tumor
replication error status for patients who have received adjuvant chemotherapy for colon
cancer on CALGB protocol 8896.

- Determine the prognostic and predictive values for response to this therapy in these
patients.

OUTLINE: Samples of tumor and normal tissue are obtained from CALGB 8896 patients. The
samples are tested for somatic mutations and tumor replication error (RER) tumor status.

Patients do not receive the results of the genetic testing and the results do not influence
the type or duration of treatment.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: At least 300 specimens will be accrued for this study.
