Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo do estudo foi estudar a expressão de timidilato sintase (TS) como fator preditivo para eficácia de quimioterapia adjuvante com 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) e como fator prognóstico para sobrevida em pacientes portadores de câncer colorretal. Trata-se de estudo retrospectivo em uma série de 114 pacientes com carcinoma colorretal estádios II ou III, distribuídos em dois grupos: 1)cirurgia exclusiva (n=61); 2)cirurgia seguida de quimioterapia com 5-FU (n=53). A expressão de TS foi determinada por imunoistoquímica. Observou-se que a expressão intratumoral de TS foi capaz de selecionar pacientes que se beneficiaram com emprego de quimioterapia adjuvante, mas não se mostrou como variável independente para risco de recidiva ou óbito

Abstract in English
The purpose of this study was trying to assess the value of TS expression as a predictive factor in the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer, as well as its independent prognostic value for survival. It deals with a retrospective study that assesses a series of 114 individuals with high risk colorectal cancer, distributed into two different groups: 1)surgery alone (n=61); 2)surgery and 5-FU-based chemotherapy (n=53). TS expression was determined by immunohistochemistry. We observed that TS expression may select patients that benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy, but it was not shown as an independent variable for the risk of recurrence or death
