PURPOSE: p21 is a direct p53 response gene. Although several studies have correlated p21 and p53 expression, only one has evaluated p21 expression as a function of sequenced p53 gene mutation. We hypothesize that such an analysis may be useful in prognosticating outcome for individuals diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: DNA from the primary ovarian cancers of 267 patients was studied....
