Baseline performance status (PS): PS 0 indicates fully active; PS 1, restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to perform light work; PS 2, ambulatory and capable of all self-care but unable to perform any work activities, up and approximately more than 50% of waking hours.

T1-2 indicates level of invasion through the bowel wall not beyond the muscle layer; T3-4, level of invasion through the bowel wall beyond the muscle layer.
