Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Expression is Associated With a Worse Prognosis in Gastric Cancer Patients Undergoing Curative Surgery
2007
Background
In gastric cancer, the recurrence rate is high even after curative surgery. A relevant issue is the identification of independent prognostic factors to select high-risk patients; such features can be used as predictive factors for tailored therapies. In this study we have investigated the role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expression as a prognostic marker for predicting cancer behavior and clinical outcome in gastric cancer patients undergoing potentially curative surgery.
