[Molecular Classification of Colorectal Cancers and Clinical Application].
Korean Journal of Gastroenterology = Taehan Sohwagi Hakhoe Chi 2016 December 26
The molecular genetics of colorectal cancers (CRCs) is among the best understood of common human cancers. It is difficult to predict the prognosis and/or to predict chemoresponding in CRC patients. At present, prognosis is based predominantly on the tumor stage and pathological examination of the disease. Molecular classification of CRCs, based on genomics and transcriptomics, proposed that CRCs can be classified into at least three-to-six subtypes, depending on the gene expression pattern, and groups of marker genes representing to each subtype have also been reported. Gene expression-based subtyping is now widely accepted as a relevant source of disease stratification. We reviewed the previous studies on CRC subtyping, international consortium dedicated to large-scale data sharing and analytics recently established four consensus molecular subtypes with distinguishing features. Predictive markers identified in these studies are under investigation and large-scale clinical evaluations of molecular markers are currently in progress.
