BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) has improved in the last decades, however, a lower overall survival persists in the elderly. The understanding of immunity changes in the elderly with CRC will allow the emergence of new treatments with higher response rates. 4-1BB and CD40L, an immune checkpoint stimulator, play an important role in T-cell responses and platelets. Our aim was to characterize the soluble levels of CD40L and 4-1BB in CRC elderly patients. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed in 41 patients with CRC and 35 healthy elderly controls. Patients with CRC were divided into three groups according to staging: 13 patients with advanced tumor restricted to the organ (stages II); 16 patients with lymph node metastasis (stage III); and 12 patients with distant metastasis (stage IV). RESULTS: There were higher levels of soluble s4-1BB and sCD40L in CRC elderly stage II patients when compared with healthy controls (P = .0009 and P < .0001, respectively), stage III patients (P = .008 and P < .0001, respectively) and stage IV patients (P = .007 and P < .0001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that sCD40L and s4-1BB molecules may be prognostic biomarkers, since the reduction in plasma levels of these molecules was associated with disease progression.
