Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most aggressive cancers with poor prognosis and high mortality. The study of the pathogenesis of CRC is a top priority in providing effective diagnostic and prognostic strategies for CRC. COPS3 protein is a subunit of the COP9 signaling body (CSN), which is closely associated with the development of multiple types of tumors. However, there are few studies on the role of COPS3 in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). This study investigated the effects of COPS3 on proliferation, motility, and EMT of colorectal cancer cells and related mechanisms. COPS3 was highly expressed in COAD. The depletion of COPS3 suppressed the viability and stimulated the apoptosis of COAD cells. Depletion of COPS3 suppressed the motility and EMT process of COAD cells. Mechanically, we found that COPS3 could mediate MEK/ERK pathway and therefore affected the process of COAD cells. We thought that COPS3 could serve as a promising COAD target.

Purpose: overexpression/amplification in wild-type (WT) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC; human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 [HER2]-positive mCRC) appears to be associated with limited benefit from anti-EGFR antibodies and promising responses to dual-HER2 inhibition; however, comparative efficacy has not been investigated. We conducted a randomized phase II trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of dual-HER2 inhibition against standard-of-care anti-EGFR antibody-based therapy as second/third-line treatment in HER2-positive mCRC.
Methods: Patients with -WT mCRC after central confirmation of HER2 positivity (immunohistochemistry 3+ or 2+ and in situ hybridization amplified [HER2/CEP17 ratio >2.
Effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on colorectal cancer screening in two university-affiliated health care systems.

Objectives: In two large university affiliated healthcare systems, we examined trends in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening both prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic to compare the trends in non-invasive screening tests and colonoscopy.
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective time-trend analysis, we obtained the numbers of colonoscopies and non-invasive tests performed monthly during the pandemic and the year prior to it. We obtained colonoscopy data from five endoscopy units with the indication determined by dual independent review.

Purpose: Patients with rare cancer often experience diagnostic delays and limited treatment options, potentially negatively impacting their working lives. We explored whether those with rare vs. common cancer have an increased risk of loss of contractual employment (1) up to 2 years pre-diagnosis, (2) up to 5 years post-diagnosis, and (3) which characteristics of rare cancer survivors are associated with loss of contractual employment 5 years post-diagnosis.

Identifying frequent users of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in the post-discharge period can potentially direct interventions to prevent deterioration at home. This study aimed to describe the frequency of post-discharge emergency phone calls within 30 days after common medical and surgical categories of hospital admission. A retrospective cohort study retrieved data from the electronic medical record and the EMS Capital Region Denmark database after approval by the Danish Health Data Authority.
