BACKGROUND: Altered cyclin D1 expression in advanced preinvasive lesions of the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) is associated with an increased risk of developing cancer and histologic progression during and after combination biochemopreventive therapy (13-cis-retinoic acid, alpha-interferon, and alpha-tocopherol). Both alleles of the adenine (A)/guanine (G) cyclin D1 polymorphism located at nucleotide 870...
