Research Abstract |
This study investigated the prognosis of metastatic colorectal cancer treated with bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy, focusing on circulating tumor cells, endothelial cells, and endothelial progenitors. We concluded the CEC status at the baseline and CEP on the day4 was correlated with the prognosis of patients treated with bevacizumab, suggesting that CEC, especially CXCR4-positive CEC, and CEP status may be useful in estimating prognosis.
