Association of p53 codon 72 polymorphism with risk of second primary malignancy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

Abstract: BACKGROUND p53 plays a critical role in cellular anti-cancer mechanisms, and has been correlated with second primary malignancy (SPM) development. A common polymorphism in codon 72 of the p53 results in an amino acid substitution and could influence p53 function. We hypothesized that p53 codon 72 polymorphism may be associated with risk of SPMs and SPM-free survival among patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). METHODS A total of 1,271 patients, who were diagnosed with incident SC… Show more

“…On the other hand “CC” genotype with PNI was found to decrease HR for TC. Increased HRs for HNSCC patients have also been reported earlier with “GC” and “CC” genotypes . Analysis of our data suggests differential impact of the intronic polymorphisms on the HRs of BMC and TC patients.…”
