Purpose Serum bilirubin plays an important role in antioxidant and anticancer processes. The inverse association between serum bilirubin and cancer risk have been widely reported in multiple cancers. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the prognostic impact of serum bilirubin in colorectal cancer patients undergoing surgical resection. Methods The value of serum bilirubin including total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and indirect bilirubin were tested at pre-operatively in 330 colorectal cancer patients. The optimal cut-off values for these three biomarkers were determined by X-tile program. The relationship between serum bilirubin and outcomes were examined using Kaplan–Meier curves log-rank test, univariate and multivariate cox regression. Moreover, a number of risk factors were used to form a nomogram for evaluating risk of survival. Results The optimal cut-off points of serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and indirect bilirubin were 19.5 μmol/L, 5.0 μmol/L and 8.1 μmol/L, respectively. Elevated total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were significantly associated with overall survival in surgical colorectal cancer patients. Additionally, predictive nomogram including total bilirubin and direct bilirubin for overall survival was established for predicting overall survival in surgical colorectal cancer patients. Conclusions These findings indicated that preoperative elevated total bilirubin and direct bilirubin could be considered as independent prognostic biomarkers for poor overall survival of colorectal cancer patients.

Abstract Background There have been controversial voices on if hepatitis B virus infection decreases the risk of colorectal liver metastases or not. This study aims to the find the association between HBV infection and postoperative survival of colorectal cancer and the risk of liver metastases in colorectal cancer patients. Methods Patients who underwent curative surgical resection for colorectal cancer between January 2011 and December 2012 were included. Patients were grouped according to anti-HBc. Differences in overall survival, time to progress, and hepatic metastasis-free survival between groups and significant predictors were analyzed. Results Three hundred twenty-seven colorectal cancer patients were comprised of 202 anti-HBc negative cases and 125 anti-HBc positive cases, and anti-HBc positive cases were further divided into high-titer anti-HBc group (39) and low-titer anti-HBc group (86). The high-titer anti-HBc group had significantly worse overall survival (5-Yr, 65.45% vs. 80.06%; P < .001), time to progress (5-Yr, 44.26% vs. 84.73%; P < .001), and hepatic metastasis-free survival (5-Yr, 82.44% vs. 94.58%; P = .029) than the low-titer group. Multivariate model showed anti-HBc ≥ 8.8 S/CO was correlated with poor overall survival (HR, 3.510; 95% CI, 1.718–7.17; P < .001), time to progress (HR, 5.747; 95% CI, 2.789–11.842; P < .001), and hepatic metastasis-free survival (HR, 3.754; 95% CI, 1.054–13.369; P = .041) in the anti-HBc positive cases. Conclusions Higher titer anti-HBc predicts a potential higher risk of liver metastases and a worse survival in anti-HBc positive colorectal cancer patients.

e15545 Background: Hepatic metastasis is the most common site of distant spread from colorectal cancer. About 15-25% patients with colorectal cancer harbors hepatic metastasis. The molecular mechanism and predicting biomarkers in colorectal cancer are still not fully understood. Methods: 57 Chinese colorectal cancer patients were enrolled in a cohort study. Samples of primary tumor were collected in these patients and underwent whole exome sequencing. Mutation profiles of primary tumors between the patients with metastasis and those without metastasis were analyzed and compared. Results: In the cohort, 54.4% (31/57) patients presented hepatic metastasis at the time of diagnosis, while 45.6% (26/57) did not. The patients were divided into 2 groups—with hepatic metastasis and without hepatic metastasis. The mutation landscape of primary tumor indicated that the Top 3 most frequently mutated genes of both groups were the same and presented mutated TP53, APC, and KRAS. 2. Interestingly, compared with the patients without hepatic metastasis, the patients with hepatic metastasis presented a higher frequency of mutated TCF7L2 (35.5% vs 3.85%) and TRIM77 (16.1% vs 0%). Moreover, in the patients with hepatic metastasis, the patients with TRIM77 mutation in primary tumor showed a worse overall survival (p < 0.0001). Conclusions: TCF7L2 and TRIM77 may be identified as potential candidate predicting biomarkers for hepatic metastasis in colorectal patients. In addition, mutated TRIM 77 predicted a poor overall survival in hepatic metastasis from colorectal cancer.
