Contemporary Validation of a Nomogram Predicting Colon Cancer Recurrence, Revealing All-Stage Improved Outcomes

[摘要] BackgroundThe Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) colon cancer recurrence nomogram is a risk calculator that provides patients and clinicians with individualized prediction of recurrence following curative resection of colon cancer. Although validated on multiple separate cohorts, the nomogram requires periodic updating as patient care changes over time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nomogram’s accuracy in a contemporary cohort and modify the tool to reflect improvements in outcome related to advances in colon cancer therapy.
