Need help in understanding cancer language
This was on a biopsy report and of course makes no sense to me. Can anyone explain? Thank you

It means you are MSS. Your tumor is a typical one found in most CRC. Generally you would not be a candidate for immunotherapy and some other therapies
What are your mutations, kRAS, bRAF ect. Do you see that on the report? If not have them them run the test if you are stage III or IV?
