Serum cytokine profile as a potential prognostic tool in colorectal cancer patients – one center study

Abstract

We proposed a statistical model based on circulating cytokine levels, showing a good prognostic value in prediction of the response to CHT (AUC = 0.956). The model, including combined IL-2, IL-8, IL-10 and IL-13 levels, established in the whole treated group, should be validated in larger trials.
