A multivariate analysis was performed for DFS and OS in CRC patients which revealed that above-median sCD163 levels (HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.0–5.7, p = 0.049) remained significantly associated with a shorter DFS when corrected for age (category ≤70 or >70 years) and TNM classification (Table 2), but not with the OS (HR 1.5, 95% CI 0.7–3.3, p = 0.291, Table 3). The gene discussed is CD163; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
