Context MicroRNAs have potential as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in cancer. No study has evaluated the association between microRNA expression patterns and colon cancer prognosis or therapeutic outcome.Objective To identify microRNA expression patterns associated with colon adenocarcinomas, prognosis, or therapeutic outcome.Design, Setting, and Patients MicroRNA microarray expression profiling of tumors and paired nontumorous tissues was performed on a US test cohort of 84 patients with incident colon adenocarcinoma, recruited between 1993 and 2002. We evaluated associations with tumor status, TNM staging, survival prognosis, and response to adjuvant chemotherapy. Associations were validated in a second, independent Chinese cohort of 113 patients recruited between 1991 and 2000, using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays. The final date of follow- up was December 31, 2005, for the Maryland cohort and August 16, 2004, for the Hong Kong cohort.Main Outcome Measures MicroRNAs that were differentially expressed in tumors and microRNA expression patterns associated with survival using cancer-specific death as the end point.Results Thirty- seven microRNAs were differentially expressed in tumors from the test cohort. Selected for validation were miR- 20a, miR- 21, miR- 106a, miR- 181b, and miR- 203, and all 5 were enriched in tumors from the validation cohort ( P
