Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 Amplification in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Quantitative Real-Time PCR
INTRODUCTION Amplification of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) gene has been described in tumors of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Prior reports showed conflicting rates of amplification frequency and clinical relevance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We developed a reliable real-time quantitative PCR assay to assess the frequency of FGFR1 amplification and assessed the op...
متن کاملFibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 and Related Ligands in Small-Cell Lung Cancer
INTRODUCTION Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for 15% of all lung cancers and has been understudied for novel therapies. Signaling through fibroblast growth factors (FGF2, FGF9) and their high-affinity receptor has recently emerged as a contributing factor in the pathogenesis and progression of non-small-cell lung cancer. In this study, we evaluated fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FG...
متن کاملThe Relationship Between Fibroblastic Growth Factor Receptor-1 (FGFR1) Gene Amplification in Triple Negative Breast Carcinomas and Clinicopathological Prognostic Factors
Background & Objective: In Triple-Negative Breast Cancers (TNBCs), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and HER2/neu genes are not expressed. Fibroblastic Growth Factor Receptor-1 (FGFR1) gene product is a protein that acts as a receptor of thyrosin kinase. It plays a role in the proliferation, differentiation, and migration of malignant cells. The objective was t...
متن کاملPrognostic role of epidermal growth factor receptor in stage III nonsmall cell lung cancer.
New biological factors have not been extensively studied in stage III nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of the present retrospective study was to determine the role of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) as a prognostic factor in stage III NSCLC, in addition to the stage and other known clinical factors. Clinical characteristics were retrieved from the patients' charts. Membrane i...
متن کاملGenetic profiling and epidermal growth factor receptor-directed therapy in nonsmall cell lung cancer.
The principle of preferentially selecting patients most likely to benefit from therapy according to their genetic profile has led to substantial clinical benefit in some tumour types, and has potential to considerably refine treatment in advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Effective, reliable use of molecular biomarkers to inform clinical practice requires the standardisation of testing...
