The Role of Serum CEA and CA19-9 in Efficacy Evaluations and Progression-Free Survival Predictions for Patients Treated with Cetuximab Combined with FOLFOX4 or FOLFIRI as a First-Line Treatment for Advanced Colorectal Cancer

<div>Comparisons of PFS. (a) After the third cycle of treatment, patients with a 35% increase in CEA and a 28% increase in CA19-9 had a shorter PFS compared with the remaining patients. (b) After the first cycle of treatment, patients with a decrease in CEA by 60% and a decrease in CA19-9 by 45% had a longer PFS compared with the remaining patients.</div>
