Copy number variations in DCC/18q and ERBB2/17q are associated with disease‐free survival in microsatellite stable colon cancer
We conducted a prospective study to assess the prognostic impact of selected copy number variations (CNVs) in Stage II–III microsatellite stable (MSS) colon cancer. A total of 401 patients were included from 01/2004 to 01/2009. The CNVs in 8 selected target genes, DCC/18q, EGFR/7p, TP53/17p, BLK/8p,...

Zusammenfassung: | We conducted a prospective study to assess the prognostic impact of selected copy number variations (CNVs) in Stage II–III microsatellite stable (MSS) colon cancer. A total of 401 patients were included from 01/2004 to 01/2009. The CNVs in 8 selected target genes, DCC/18q, EGFR/7p, TP53/17p, BLK/8p, MYC/8q, APC/5q, ERBB2/17q and STK6/20q, were detected using a quantitative multiplex polymerase chain reaction of short fluorescent fragment (QMPSF) method. The primary end‐point was the impact of the CNVs on the 4‐year disease‐free survival (DFS). The recurrence rate at 4 years was 20.9%, corresponding to 14% Stage II patients versus 31% Stage III patients (p |
