BIOLOGICAL STUDY aiming at describing clinicophatological features of EO-CRC vs SO-CRC: Description of clinicophatological features of EO-CRC vs SO-CRC
Study summary
Observational, retrospective and prospective multicentric Italian study of patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer between age 18-40, aiming at underpinning the biology of vEO-CRC, including colibactin as well as a broader proteo-genomic characterization, to identify potential new therapeutic targets specifically directed to this peculiar subset of patients.
