Worse Outcome in Primary Glioblastoma Multiforme With Concurrent Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor and p53 Alteration

Abstract excerpt

Primary glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), in contrast with secondary GBM, has been associated with the presence of EGFR amplification and absence of p53 mutation. In this study, we analyzed relevant molecular and clinical variables in 194 primary GBMs and tested them for survival analysis. Although most of the tumors showed a mutually exclusive pattern, concurrent alterations of EGFR and p53 were detected. Survival...
