Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the p53, MDM2 and p21 genes of the p53 pathway have been extensively studied. The main aim of the current retrospective study was to evaluate the possible predictive value of SNPs in the p53 pathway in locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in response to radiotherapy. In total, 75 consecutive patients with locoregionally advanced NPC were enrolled. Three...
