Correlation of TP53 Overexpression and Clinical Parameters with Five-Year Survival in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients

Abstract: IntroductionTP53 mutation and overexpression have been correlated with poor survival in many cancers including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We aim to understand the role of TP53 overexpression in OSCC in our population and correlate it with five-year survival to test its viability as a prognostic marker for OSCC patients.Materials and methodsPatients with biopsy proven OSCC at Aga Khan University Hospital from January 2000 to January 2008 were recruited. Immunohistochemistry was used to establish TP53 … Show more

“…We designed our panel to analyze the target hot spots of genes relevant for CNS tumors, NSCLCs, CRCs, thyroid nodules, melanomas, pancreatic lesions, oral squamous carcinomas, and GISTs according to updated guidelines and diagnostic/prognostic/predictive clinical needs [2,3,[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][14][15][16][17][18][19]24,43].…”

“…To determine the Cyclin D1 expression we used a more objective and inclusive method as depicted by Guy et al 2010. 14,15 Both nuclear and cytoplasmic staining was considered as positive. Cytoplasmic staining in absence of nuclear staining was considered negative.…”
