That information can help doctors decide whether patients will need chemotherapy once their tumors are removed through surgery. According to the researchers who conducted the first study of the test, patients with low risk scores may expect an 8% chance of seeing their cancer come back within three years; higher-scoring patients have a 25% chance of recurrence over the same time period. Colon cancer is currently...
