Predictive immunohistochemical features for tumour response to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer

Predictive immunohistochemical features for tumour response to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer

Background Reduced expression of cluster of differentiation (CD) 133 and cyclo‐oxygenase (COX) 2, and increased density of CD8+ tumour‐infiltrating lymphocytes, are associated with a favourable tumour response to preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT).
