Abstract
Background: The ability to predict patients with stage II colon cancer at high risk of recurrence
is currently limited to certain clinicopathologic factors. Patients and Methods: This population-based study reviewed various prognostic factors to identify those
associated with worse time to recurrence (TTR) and improved disease-specific survival
(DSS), and to subsequently develop a prognostic index (PI) to identify high risk cancers.
Results: Multivariate analyses revealed factors significant for TTR and DSS. A PI derived
from the TTR risk factors identified 3 risk groups using 5-year rate without relapse:
88% for low-risk, 81% for intermediate-risk, and 59% for high risk. Conclusion: This model was better at identifying high risk patients than using equally weighted
standard risk factors.
