ABSTRACT: Background
This study explores whether genomic profiles of colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) patients with early onset (EO, < 50 years old) and screening age (SA) primary diagnosis are associated with overall survival (OS).Methods
All patients undergoing hepatectomy between 2002 and 2017 were identified and tumor specimens with next-generation sequencing data were cataloged. Gene and signaling-level alterations were checked for association with OS from primary diagnosis accommodating for left-truncated survival.Results
Of 1822 patients, 333 were sequenced-127 (38%) EO-CRLM and 206 (62%) SA-CRLM patients. More aggressive features presented in EO-CRLM patients-synchronous metastatic presentation (83% vs. 75%, p < 0.001) and primary node-positive disease (71% vs. 61%,
