| According to the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Program database analysis, 5-year survival rates have risen from 56.5% for patients diagnosed in the early 1980s to as much as 63.2% for those diagnosed in the early 1990s and most recently to 64.9%, a trend due mostly to earlier diagnosis and treatment [Ries LAG, et al. 2008]. One reason for the improving trend is that the prognosis for patients with CRC is highly dependent on stage: 5-year survival rates are over 90% for Dukes A, but only 5% for Dukes D. Unfortunately, only 10% of CRCs are diagnosed early, most patients presenting themselves with the advanced disease [Rockville, MD. 1998].
