We aimed to explore the potential prognostic impact of the metastatic site on the management approach and prognosis of stage IV colorectal cancer patients with synchronous metastases. Synchronous metastatic colorectal cancer patients reported to the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program database between 2010 and 2013 were included in this study. Overall survival (OS) was compared between patients with different treatment options using risk-adjusted Cox proportional hazard regression models. Overall, 17,776 patients with stage IV colorectal cancer were identified. Of these patients, 2,052 (11.5%) underwent surgical resection for tumors at both the primary and metastatic sites. Patients who underwent surgical resection of both primary and metastatic sites with liver, lung, and simultaneous liver and lung metastases had a longer median OS ( < 0.001) than patients who underwent nonsurgical treatments. Cox regression analysis revealed that surgical resection of both primary and metastatic sites was associated with a significantly enhanced OS ( < 0.001). Colorectal cancer patients with hepatic or pulmonary metastases, who underwent metastasectomy, even in selected patients with both hepatic and pulmonary metastases after multidisciplinary evaluation, could have a better survival benefit than patients who underwent nonsurgical treatments.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) with laparoscopic total mesorectal excision (LaTME) in patients with middle and low rectal cancer.
Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases was conducted to identify studies evaluating TaTME and LaTME from inception to June 2023. An additional search update was conducted in November 2024 to capture recently published studies.

Background: Pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), shows significant survival benefits in patients with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), but its efficacy in microsatellite-stable (MSS) mCRC is limited. Although ICIs are effective in tumor mutational burden-high (TMB-H) solid tumors, the impact on MSS-TMB-H mCRC, a rare subset within MSS mCRC, remains unclear.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis using clinical and genomic data from the Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT) repository in Japan.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is an exceedingly common and profoundly impactful malignancy of the digestive system, posing a grave threat to human health. Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) is an intracellular biological reaction that mobilizes the unfolded protein response (UPR) to tackling dysregulation in protein homeostasis. This process subtly modulates the cell to either restore normal cellular function or steer it towards apoptosis.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the United Kingdom and the second largest cause of cancer death.
Aim: To develop and validate a model using available information at the time of faecal immunochemical testing (FIT) in primary care to improve selection of symptomatic patients for CRC investigations.
Methods: We included all adults (≥ 18 years) referred to Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust between 2018 and 2022 with symptoms of suspected CRC who had a FIT.
