Response - NO
Brief Summary   This prospective and retrospective observational study will be conducted in the Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry sections of the Department of Pathology, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, in collaboration with the Department of General Surgery at Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital. It will aim to evaluate androgen receptor (AR) expression in colorectal carcinoma using immunohistochemistry and will correlate the findings with histopathological grade and TNM staging. As the incidence of colorectal cancer in India is expected to continue rising, particularly among younger individuals, and with limited research on hormonal influences such as AR, this study will seek to clarify AR’s role in tumor progression and prognosis. The outcomes will help identify high-risk subtypes and may guide the development of hormone-based therapeutic strategies tailored to the Indian population.
