A high C3M/PRO-C3 ratio at baseline associate with good survival outcomes. Kaplan-Meier plots demonstrating the association of the C3M/PRO-C3 ratio with progression-free survival (PFS) (A) and overall survival (OS) (B) for patients with metastatic melanoma. Patients were divided based on a C3M/PRO-C3 ratio >1 or <1 and a log-rank test was used to determine differences between survival curves. C3M, matrix metalloprotease (MMP)-degraded type III collagen; PRO-C3, N-terminal pro-peptide of type III collagen.
