SEOM clinical guidelines for the adjuvant treatment of colorectal cancer

Abstract: Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignant neoplasm and the second cause of death by cancer in western countries. In this manuscript, the clinical guidelines of the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM) for diagnosis and adjuvant treatment of colon cancer and rectal cancer are reported.

“…Adjuvant chemotherapy for colon cancer was administered according to the norms of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology (SEOM) (31,32). Locally advanced rectal cancers (at stages cT3-4 or cN1) and clinically bulky tumors received external radiotherapy (45 Gy to 54 Gy) neoadjuvant treatment over four weeks in combination with 5-fluorocil-based chemotherapy, according to a regimen described previously (33).…”

“…Colon cancer (CC) is the third most common cancer in both genders worldwide and the second cause of cancer-related death in western countries, only overcome by lung cancer [1, 2]. In Cuba, CC is one of the most frequent tumors and the third cause of death by cancer in both men and women [3].…”

“…Despite the significant advances in the treatment and knowledge of the colon tumor biology over the last decade, the 5-year survival after surgery varies from 90% to 10%, depending on stage and progression of disease [2, 4]. Therefore, it is important to increase our understanding of the molecular changes leading to development, spread, and metastasis and to identify potential prognostic and predictive markers for the disease.…”

“…Pathological typing of tumor tissues was performed to evaluate the infiltration degree based on the UICC standard [ 6 ]. The diagnosis of lymph node differentiation and metastasis was performed according to WHO guidelines [ 7 ]. Post-operative follow-up was performed on all patients once per month for a maximum duration of 5.5 years (average=3.6 years).…”
