Prognostic Role of Methylation Status of theMGMTPromoter Determined Quantitatively by Pyrosequencing in Glioblastoma Patients
1 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: This study investigated whether pyrosequencing can be used to determine the methylation status of the MGMT promoter as a clinical biomarker using relatively old archival tissue samples of glioblastoma. We also examined other prognostic factors for survival of glioblastoma patients. METHODS: The available study set included formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue from 104 patients at two...
