Tumor Replication Error (RER) Status and Outcome in a Colon Cancer Adjuvant Chemotherapy Trial

RATIONALE: Analyzing the structure of genes found in a person's cancer cells may help
doctors improve methods of treating patients with colon cancer.

PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study the genes of patients treated with chemotherapy for colon
cancer.

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the relationship between disease free survival, overall survival, and tumor
replication error status for patients who have received adjuvant chemotherapy for colon
cancer on CALGB protocol 8896.

- Determine the prognostic and predictive values for response to this therapy in these
patients.

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Patients who received chemotherapy for colon cancer as part of CALGB protocol 8896

- Underwent an initial resection for adenocarcinoma of the colon and were determined to
have a high risk of tumor recurrence based upon nodal disease or local extension of
tumor with obstruction or perforation due to tumor

- Surgical specimen blocks available, including tumor tissue and normal tissue
