Progression-Free Survival in Ovarian Cancer Is Reflected in Epigenetic DNA Methylation Profiles
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Many patients with ovarian cancer disease relapse within 6 months after adjuvant chemotherapy, with a limited prognosis. Epigenetic modifications have been shown to play an important role in tumor development and formation. Therefore, global analysis of DNA methylation patterns might reveal specific CpG sites that correlate with progression-free interval (PFI) after therapy. METHODS: Twenty samples of...
