The expression of p16 and p21 was significantly elevated after irinotecan-based chemotherapy in mCRC patients of cohort 2. (A) IHC staining of p16 and p21 in matched CRC tissues. pre-Treat, colonoscopy biopsies or surgically resected tumors before anti-cancer treatment. post-Treat, surgically resected tumors after irinotecan-based chemotherapy. (B) The staining distribution of p16 and p21. (C) The intensity score of p16 and p21. (D and E) The IRS of p16 and p21. (F) Kaplan-Meier plots of PFS. The plot was generated according to the difference between pre-Treat IRS and post-Treat IRS of p16 (p16-diff) and p21 (p21-diff). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001
