Epidermal growth factor receptor overexpression in malignant pleural mesothelioma: prognostic correlations.

Journal of surgical oncology - 1 Nov 2011

Rena Ottavio, Boldorini Luciano R, Gaudino Erica, Casadio Caterina

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To evaluate epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) phenotypic expression and related gene status in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) and to correlate the results with patients' prognosis. METHOD: Eighty-three cases of MPM specimens were submitted to immunohistochemical (IHC) staining to evaluate the expression of EGFR protein; positive cases were submitted to fluorescence in situ hybridization...
