      • For patients receiving a non-oxaliplatin-based adjuvant therapy regimen (ie, a fluoropyrimidine alone), six months of adjuvant therapy remains the standard approach. (See "Adjuvant chemotherapy for resected stage II colon cancer", section on 'Risk stratification'and "Adjuvant chemotherapy for resected stage II colon cancer", section on 'Choice of regimen'and "Adjuvant therapy for resected colon cancer in older adult patients", section on 'Challenges specific to older adults'and 'Side effects'below.)

        The necessity of preoperative abdominal/pelvic CT for all patients with colon cancer is controversial, as is the clinical benefit of a staging chest CT. Nevertheless, the standard practice at most institutions is that all patients with stage II, III, or IV colon cancer undergo chest, abdomen, and pelvic CT either prior to or following resection, an approach that is endorsed by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) [3], the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO)

        The necessity of preoperative abdominal/pelvic CT for all patients with colon cancer is controversial, as is the clinical benefit of a staging chest CT. Nevertheless, the standard practice at most institutions is that all patients with stage II, III, or IV colon cancer undergo chest, abdomen, and pelvic CT either prior to or following resection, an approach that is endorsed by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) [3], the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO).

      • However, increasingly, universal testing of all colorectal cancers for MSI or loss of MMR proteins by IHC is performed, a practice that is supported by guidelines from the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), and the United States Multi-Society Task Force on Colorectal Cancer [4-6]:
        .Absence of MSI and intact expression of all four MMR proteins on IHC rules out Lynch syndrome.
        .Although over 90 percent of Lynch syndrome-related colorectal cancers will demonstrate MSI, 15 percent of sporadic colorectal cancers also have MSI. Thus, the finding of MSI in a colorectal cancer does not indicate Lynch syndrome but, instead, identifies those patients who should be referred for additional testing (IHC or germline mutational testing).
        .For individuals with evidence of high MSI (MSI-H) or loss of expression of an MMR protein by IHC, further evaluation is based on the MSI/IHC results and is outlined in the suggested algorithm (algorithm 1):
        .Absence of protein expression of MLH1 and PMS2, MLH1 alone, or PMS2 alone (which is rare) may be associated with either sporadic or inherited disease

        Management of carcinoma in a polyp. The majority of colon cancers arise from polyps (adenomas). Benign adenomas, as well as those with severe dysplasia or carcinoma in situ (no evidence of invasive cancer, defined as invasion into the submucosa), can be effectively managed by endoscopic removal (polypectomy) alone as long as the resection margins are free of cancer

      • Results from the International Duration Evaluation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy (IDEA) collaboration (six randomized trials of six versus three months of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant therapy) suggest that six months of therapy remains the standard of care for individuals with high-risk cancers (T4 or N2 (table 1)) [16]. On the other hand, given the small predicted loss of absolute disease-free survival benefit (absolute difference 0.9 percent at three years) and the significantly lower rates of oxaliplatin neuropathy seen in the IDEA collaboration analysis, adjuvant therapy can be limited to three months in patients with low-risk disease (T1-3N1), which makes up approximately 60 percent of all stage III colon cancers

      • Five-year survival rates according to tumor stage at diagnosis for patients with colon cancer, derived from the population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and stratified according to the current 2010 American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) staging classification, are illustrated in the figure (figure 2) [25].
        For individual patients, a postoperative nomogram has been developed that permits prediction of the risk of a colon cancer recurrence based upon clinicopathologic factors and whether adjuvant chemotherapy was administered or not [27].

      • In an analysis of 3622 patients with colon cancer derived from two French digestive cancer registries, among men with no recurrence five years after the diagnosis of colon cancer, 1 in 12 (8.3 percent) developed a subsequent recurrence between years 5 and 10; the corresponding rate for women was 1 in 19 (5.3 percent) [31].
        A web-based tool is available to determine conditional survival expectancy based upon initial stage at diagnosis, ethnicity, age, gender, and histologic grade.
        Prognosis for patients with advanced (metastatic) colorectal cancer is highly variable and dependent on many factors, including age and performance status, site and number of metastases, molecular factors such as RAS or BRAF mutations and deficient DNA mismatch repair/microsatellite instability (MSI), eligibility for surgery or additional chemotherapy, and tumor location.

        Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the liver might identify more hepatic lesions than are visualized by CT and may be indicated to further define the extent of disease in patients who have suspected liver metastases on CT. (See "Clinical presentation, diagnosis, and staging of colorectal cancer", section on 'Liver magnetic resonance imaging'.)
        Positron emission tomography (PET) scans do not appear to add significant information to CT scans for routine preoperative staging of colon cancer.

      • It is generally preferable to obtain these scans prior to, rather than after, operation, as the scan results will occasionally change surgical planning.
        Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the liver might identify more hepatic lesions than are visualized by CT and may be indicated to further define the extent of disease in patients who have suspected liver metastases on CT. (See "Clinical presentation, diagnosis, and staging of colorectal cancer", section on 'Liver magnetic resonance imaging'.)
        Positron emission tomography (PET) scans do not appear to add significant information to CT scans for routine preoperative staging of colon cancer. PET scan may be helpful for patients who are thought to be candidates for resection of isolated colorectal cancer liver and lung metastases, in whom the routine use of PET reduces the number of nontherapeutic laparotomies

      • Although fewer patients in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy group did not receive any chemotherapy (4 versus 27 percent), the majority of the patients who did not receive chemotherapy in the surgery upfront group did not receive it because they were perceived to have low-risk disease (16 percent), and only 11 percent either were too unwell for chemotherapy or refused it.
        Adjuvant chemotherapy. For patients who have undergone potentially curative resection of a colon cancer, the goal of postoperative (adjuvant) chemotherapy is to eradicate micrometastases, thereby reducing the likelihood of disease recurrence and increasing the cure rate

        The most important indicator of outcome following resection of colon cancer is the pathologic stage at presentation [25,26]. Five-year survival rates according to tumor stage at diagnosis for patients with colon cancer, derived from the population-based Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and stratified according to the current 2010 American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC)/Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) staging classification, are illustrated in the figure (figure 2) [25].
        For individual patients, a postoperative nomogram has been developed that permits prediction of the risk of a colon cancer recurrence based upon clinicopathologic factors and whether adjuvant chemotherapy was administered or not [27]

      • In an analysis of 3622 patients with colon cancer derived from two French digestive cancer registries, among men with no recurrence five years after the diagnosis of colon cancer, 1 in 12 (8.3 percent) developed a subsequent recurrence between years 5 and 10; the corresponding rate for women was 1 in 19 (5.3 percent) [31].
        A web-based tool is available to determine conditional survival expectancy based upon initial stage at diagnosis, ethnicity, age, gender, and histologic grade.
        Prognosis for patients with advanced (metastatic) colorectal cancer is highly variable and dependent on many factors, including age and performance status, site and number of metastases, molecular factors such as RAS or BRAF mutations and deficient DNA mismatch repair/microsatellite instability (MSI), eligibility for surgery or additional chemotherapy, and tumor location

      • Higher rates of diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, and myelosuppression are usually seen with bolus FU/LV regimens that do not require central venous access or an ambulatory infusion pump. (See "Adjuvant therapy for resected stage III (node-positive) colon cancer", section on 'Infusional versus bolus fluorouracil'.)
        In the experimental arm of this MOSAIC trial, the addition of oxaliplatin to infusional plus bolus FU/LV (the FOLFOX regimen) resulted in severe (grade 3 or worse) neutropenia (43 percent), diarrhea (11 percent), vomiting (6 percent), and stomatitis (3 percent) [18]

      • Endoscopic resection is also a reasonable alternative to radical surgery for selected favorable-risk early stage colon cancers arising in a polyp. The presence of any of the following factors should prompt consideration of radical surgery, as they indicate a higher risk of residual cancer and/or nodal metastases (see "Surgical resection of primary colon cancer", section on 'Carcinoma in a polyp'):
        .Poorly differentiated histology
        .Lymphovascular invasion
        .Cancer at the resection or stalk margin
        .Invasion into the muscularis propria of the bowel wall (T2 lesion)
        .Invasive carcinoma arising in a sessile (flat) polyp with unfavorable features (eg, lower third submucosal penetration, lymphovascular invasion, poorly differentiated histology)
        Locally advanced primary lesions

      • On the other hand, given the small predicted loss of absolute disease-free survival benefit (absolute difference 0.9 percent at three years) and the significantly lower rates of oxaliplatin neuropathy seen in the IDEA collaboration analysis, adjuvant therapy can be limited to three months in patients with low-risk disease (T1-3N1), which makes up approximately 60 percent of all stage III colon cancers. These data are discussed in more detail separately. (See "Adjuvant therapy for resected stage III (node-positive) colon cancer", section on 'Oxaliplatin-based therapy'.)
        Among patients with resected node-negative (stage II) disease, the benefits of chemotherapy are controversial, as is the relative benefit of an oxaliplatin-based as compared with a non-oxaliplatin-based regimen

      • In an analysis of 3622 patients with colon cancer derived from two French digestive cancer registries, among men with no recurrence five years after the diagnosis of colon cancer, 1 in 12 (8.3 percent) developed a subsequent recurrence between years 5 and 10; the corresponding rate for women was 1 in 19 (5.3 percent) [31].
        A web-based tool is available to determine conditional survival expectancy based upon initial stage at diagnosis, ethnicity, age, gender, and histologic grade.
        Prognosis for patients with advanced (metastatic) colorectal cancer is highly variable and dependent on many factors, including age and performance status, site and number of metastases, molecular factors such as RAS or BRAF mutations and deficient DNA mismatch repair/microsatellite instability (MSI), eligibility for surgery or additional chemotherapy, and tumor location. Nomograms for overall and progression-free survival based on several of these clinicopathologic factors have been developed that can assist in aiding prognostication and patient-physician communication; however, they do not include tumor location or MSI status and only apply to patients who are not candidates for or do not undergo metastasectomy [32].
        POSTTREATMENT SURVEILLANCE
        Following treatment for a stage II or III colon cancer, posttreatment surveillance usually consists of periodic history and physical examination, with serial assay of the serum concentrations of the tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), annual surveillance computed tomography (CT) scans, and colonoscopy to detect metachronous primaries

        Even patients who are not candidates for a curative resection can benefit from surgical palliation for symptoms of obstruction and bleeding from the primary tumor, although the overwhelming majority of patients without symptoms who initiate chemotherapy never require palliative surgery [24]

      • If there is methylation of the MLH1 promoter and no BRAF mutation, then a disease-causing genetic defect should be considered, as 5 to 10 percent of these patients may harbor a germline mutation [33,34].
        .On the other hand, loss of expression of MSH2 alone, MSH2 in combination with MSH6, or MSH6 alone is highly specific for a disease-causing germline defect, and referral for genetic testing (for the genes corresponding to the absent proteins) is appropriate. (See "Lynch syndrome (hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer): Clinical manifestations and diagnosis" and "Lynch syndrome (hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer): Cancer screening and management".)
        Extracolonic cancers are very common in Lynch syndrome, particularly endometrial carcinomas, which may occur in up to 60 percent of female mutation carriers in some families

      • Expert guidelines suggest that the risks and estimated benefits of adjuvant chemotherapy be discussed with patients who have resected node-negative colon cancer. Among the issues that need to be taken into consideration when assessing the risk of recurrence and estimated benefit from specific chemotherapy regimens are the presence of high-risk clinicopathologic features (fewer than 12 nodes in the surgical specimen, T4 stage (table 1), perforated/obstructed tumor, poorly differentiated histology, lymphovascular or perineural invasion), mismatch repair enzyme status, assessment of comorbidities and anticipated life expectancy, and given the relatively good prognosis of stage II disease, the potential risks associated with treatment

      • Among the issues that need to be taken into consideration when assessing the risk of recurrence and estimated benefit from specific chemotherapy regimens are the presence of high-risk clinicopathologic features (fewer than 12 nodes in the surgical specimen, T4 stage (table 1), perforated/obstructed tumor, poorly differentiated histology, lymphovascular or perineural invasion), mismatch repair enzyme status, assessment of comorbidities and anticipated life expectancy, and given the relatively good prognosis of stage II disease, the potential risks associated with treatment.

      • In data derived from the 20,800-patient ACCENT database of patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy for stage II or III colon cancer, recurrence rates after five years never exceeded 1.5 percent annually, and after eight years, they were 0.5 percent per year [29].
        As a result, conditional survival (eg, the survival probability after a given length of survival) improves dramatically after five years

      • While concurrently administered chemotherapy plus radiation therapy (RT) provides synergistic antitumor activity, it also increases treatment-related toxicity, which may be prohibitive if the radiation treatment volume includes a substantial amount of bowel.
        The utility of preoperative chemotherapy for patients with primary colon cancers was directly addressed in the phase III FOxTROT trial, in which 1052 patients with a computed tomography (CT) scan-predicted, T3-4N0-2, nonobstructed primary colon cancer who had no metastatic disease and who were fit for chemotherapy were randomly assigned to surgery upfront followed by six months of adjuvant oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy or to six weeks of preoperative oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy followed by surgery and then 18 additional weeks of chemotherapy [15]

      • Postoperative RT is not usually considered a routine component of care for completely resected colon cancer. This is in contrast to patients with rectal cancer, in whom effective adjuvant therapy for both transmural and node-positive disease includes RT. Local recurrence is more frequent with rectal cancer due to the local anatomy and the difficulty in obtaining adequate resection margins

      • Nomograms for overall and progression-free survival based on several of these clinicopathologic factors have been developed that can assist in aiding prognostication and patient-physician communication; however, they do not include tumor location or MSI status and only apply to patients who are not candidates for or do not undergo metastasectomy [32].
        POSTTREATMENT SURVEILLANCE
        Following treatment for a stage II or III colon cancer, posttreatment surveillance usually consists of periodic history and physical examination, with serial assay of the serum concentrations of the tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), annual surveillance computed tomography (CT) scans, and colonoscopy to detect metachronous primaries

      • Survival was significantly better in patients with initial stage II rather than stage III tumors (median 18 versus 13 months), in those with a longer disease-free interval, and in those who did not receive FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy following resection of the primary tumor.
        Although there are no prospective trials to guide therapy, the management of these patients is typically multidisciplinary and may include chemotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, or intraoperative radiation therapy in addition to surgery

      • Survival was significantly better in patients with initial stage II rather than stage III tumors (median 18 versus 13 months), in those with a longer disease-free interval, and in those who did not receive FU-based adjuvant chemotherapy following resection of the primary tumor.
        Although there are no prospective trials to guide therapy, the management of these patients is typically multidisciplinary and may include chemotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, or intraoperative radiation therapy in addition to surgery.

      • Nomograms for overall and progression-free survival based on several of these clinicopathologic factors have been developed that can assist in aiding prognostication and patient-physician communication; however, they do not include tumor location or MSI status and only apply to patients who are not candidates for or do not undergo metastasectomy [32].
        POSTTREATMENT SURVEILLANCE
        Following treatment for a stage II or III colon cancer, posttreatment surveillance usually consists of periodic history and physical examination, with serial assay of the serum concentrations of the tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), annual surveillance computed tomography (CT) scans, and colonoscopy to detect metachronous primaries.

        Although major advances in systemic chemotherapy have expanded the therapeutic options for these patients and improved median survival from less than one year in the single-agent fluoropyrimidine era to more than 30 months, fewer than 20 percent [23] of those treated with chemotherapy alone are still alive at five years, and only a few are free of disease, unless resection or ablation of metastases has been performed. (See "Systemic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer: General principles", section on 'Chemotherapy versus supportive care'and "Systemic chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer: General principles".)
        On the other hand, surgery provides a potentially curative option for selected patients with limited metastatic disease, predominantly in the liver and lung

      • Six months of therapy has been the standard approach, but the cumulative and dose-limiting neuropathy associated with oxaliplatin has prompted interest in a shorter duration of therapy. Results from the International Duration Evaluation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy (IDEA) collaboration (six randomized trials of six versus three months of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant therapy) suggest that six months of therapy remains the standard of care for individuals with high-risk cancers (T4 or N2 (table 1)) [16]

        .The substitution of capecitabine for infusional FU/LV in combination with oxaliplatin increases the convenience of treatment but tends to be more toxic than FOLFOX. As an example, in one adjuvant trial, rates of grade 3 or worse toxicity with CAPOX included diarrhea (19 percent), sensory neuropathy (11 percent), neutropenia (9 percent), vomiting (6 percent), hand-foot syndrome (5 percent), and dehydration (3 percent) [20]
