Abstract: Objective: Numerous studies examining the relationship between human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) overexpression and survival in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) have yielded controversial results. We therefore performed a meta-analysis more precisely to estimate its prognostic value. Methods: Published studies investigating the effect of HER-2 overexpression on CRC survival were identified; the hazard ratios (HRs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were pooled in terms of disease-specific or overall survival. Results: Eleven studies were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled data showed that HER-2 overexpression was negatively related to CRC survival (HR=1.10, 95% CI: 0.77–1.44). Subgroup analyses regarding test method and study quality also demonstrated little association between HER-2 overexpression and CRC survival (HR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.50–1.29; HR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.43–1.37, respectively). Conclusions: Regardless of several limitations, our study suggested that HER-2 overexpression probably had little impact on CRC survival.

HER-2高表达与结直肠癌生存期关系的meta分析

研究目的：探讨人类表皮生长因子受体2（HER-2）的高表达与结直肠癌患者术后生存期的关系。
创新要点：采用meta分析的方法，精确地探讨HER-2高表达与结直肠癌患者生存期的关系，解决不同研究产生不同结论的矛盾。
研究方法：系统收集近20年来所有与HER-2表达和结直肠癌生存期关系相关文献，提取数据并计算与癌症或总体生存时间对应的危险比及其95%可信区间。
重要结论：HER-2高表达可能与结直肠癌患者术后生存时间无关（见图2）。

关键词：人类表皮生长因子受体2（HER-2）；结直肠癌；生存期；Meta分析
