Significant differences in outcome between Immunoscore categories in stage I colon cancer patients A subgroup analysis was performed on the stage I patients (n=451) from the Immunoscore international validation study (Pagès et al. The Lancet 2018). Patients were classified by Immunoscore based on pre- defined cutoffs, either in 5 (IS 0-4), in 3 (IS 0-1, IS 2, IS 3-4) or in 2 categories (IS 0-1,IS 2-3-4) Time to recurrence (TTR) was compared between Immunoscore categories. Immunoscore® is an in vitro diagnostic test that predicts the risk of relapse in patients with early-stage Colon Cancer (CC) by measuring the host immune response at the tumor site. It is a risk-assessment tool that provides independent and superior prognostic value than traditional risk parameters and is intended to be used as an adjunct to the TNM classification. Currently, the target population for Immunoscore is stage II & III CC patients, for whom individual risk-assessment plays a critical role to guide post-surgery decisions. In stage I, survival rates are high and adjuvant chemotherapy is not typically recommended. However, approximately 10% of stage I CC tumors will recur even after surgical resection.

Significant differences in outcome between Immunoscore categories in stage I colon cancer patients

• A subgroup analysis was performed on the stage I patients (n=451)from the Immunoscore international validation study (Pagès et al. TheLancet 2018). Patients were classified by Immunoscore based on pre-defined cutoffs, either in 5 (IS 0-4), in 3 (IS 0-1, IS 2, IS 3-4) or in 2categories (IS 0-1,IS 2-3-4)

• Time to recurrence (TTR) was compared between Immunoscorecategories.

Immunoscore® is an in vitro diagnostic test that predicts the risk ofrelapse in patients with early-stage Colon Cancer (CC) by measuring thehost immune response at the tumor site. It is a risk-assessment tool thatprovides independent and superior prognostic value than traditional riskparameters and is intended to be used as an adjunct to the TNMclassification. Currently, the target population for Immunoscore is stage II& III CC patients, for whom individual risk-assessment plays a critical roleto guide post-surgery decisions. In stage I, survival rates are high andadjuvant chemotherapy is not typically recommended. However,approximately 10% of stage I CC tumors will recur even after surgicalresection.

Relative contribution of IS to the risk of relapse (Chi2)

• Immunoscore was strongerthan all standard clinicalparameters, showing thehighest contribution topredict relapse

• Similar significant resultswere found using theImmunoscore percentilesas numeric continuousparameter

• IS 3-4, 2 and 0-1 were observed in 39%, 47% and 14% of the cohort,respectively.

• IS was positively and significantly correlated with TTR.• In multivariate analysis, when adjusting the model with IS, age, gender,

T-stage sidedness and MSI, IS remained the sole significant parameter(stratified by participating center HRlow vs high=7.82; 95% CI 1.49−41.01;p=0.015), with the highest relative contribution for prediction ofrelapse (chi squared proportion (χ²) =62%) compared to the otherparameters in the model.

• Immunoscore is a robust prognostic indicator of the risk ofrecurrence in stage I CC.

• This risk assessment tool reliably identifies a sub-group of patientswith an increased risk of relapse for whom a more intensivesurveillance program after curative resection may berecommended.
