The carcinoembryonic antigen ratio is a potential predictor of survival in recurrent colorectal cancer

ConclusionThe CEA-R is a potential marker stratifying the survival of patients with disease relapse who exhibit aggressive biology at recurrent disease foci. As a novel marker, the CEA-R would serve as a clinical guide for tailoring treatment strategies at the time of disease relapse in patients with colorectal cancer.
