Univariate analysis of the TCGA dataset suggested that age (P = 0.003), history of colon polyps (P = 0.020), tumor stage (P < 0.001), mismatch repair system (MMR) status (P = 0.045), EGFR mutation (P = 0.003), and risk score (P < 0.001) were significantly associated with OS (Figure 1D). This evidence concerns the gene EGFR and neoplasm.
