CTNNB1 S45F Mutation Predicts Poor Efficacy of Meloxicam Treatment for Desmoid Tumors: A Pilot Study
1 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
We hypothesized that patterns of CTNNB1 (β-catenin) mutations would affect the outcome of conservative therapy in patients with desmoid tumors. This study aimed to determine the significance of CTNNB1 (β-catenin) mutations in predicting the treatment outcome in patients with desmoid tumors treated with meloxicam, a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective inhibitor. Between 2003 and 2012, consecutive thirty-three...
