CHEK1 gene is known to play an important role in tumor progression by cell cycle control. However, the association between CHEK1 and the prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is unclear. In this study, we explored the association between genetic variants in CHEK1 gene and prognosis of ESCC patients treated with radical resection. A total of 131 thoracic ESCC patients who underwent radical...
