Objective This study sought to assess the prognostic role of Ki67 in primary ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) and to determine whether Ki67 expression can predict responsiveness to platinum and paclitaxel chemotherapy. Results A total of 318 women were included in the analysis and the median follow-up time was 48 months (range, 3-150 months). Ki67 proliferation indices ranged from 3...

Introduction: Breast cancer can be classified into subtypes based on immunohistochemical markers, with Ki67 expression levels being used to divide luminal BC tumors in luminal A and B subtypes; however, Ki67 is not routinely determined due to a lack of standardization. Objective: To evaluate histological grade and Eliminate: the mitotic index to determine if they can be used as an alternative m...

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, containing approximately one third of all illnesses in women. Assessment of molecular markers is valuable in predicting the outcome of disease and decision making for optimal treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between estrogen and progesterone receptors with Her-2, Ki67, P53, and clinicopathologica...

Ki67 is a commonly used marker of cancer cell proliferation, and has significant prognostic value in breast cancer. In spite of its clinical importance, assessment of Ki67 remains a challenge, as current manual scoring methods have high inter- and intra-user variability. A major reason for this variability is selection bias, in that different observers will score different regions of the same t...

Background: To investigate the relationship between clinical and histopathological characteristics and overall survival of patients with oral mucosal melanoma (OMM) without distal metastasis in order to provide predictive prognostic information of OMM. Methods: Ki67 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 123 patients with OMM without distant metastases. The associations between Ki67...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Overexpression of the tumor suppressor gene p53 and the marker for cellular proliferation Ki67 in open lung biopsies are indicated as predictor factors of survival of patients with lung cancer. However, the prognostic value of p53 and Ki67 in fiberoptic bronchial biopsies (FBB) has not been fully investigated. We evaluated p53 and Ki67 immunostaining in FBB from 19 with...

BACKGROUND Ki67 index is one of the most important immunocytochemical markers of proliferation in tumors, but the criterion of Ki67 index in GISTs was not well-defined yet. Our study aims to fully evaluate the prognostic value of Ki67 index in GIST patients and efficiency of imatinib adjuvant therapy. METHODS Clinicopathological data were confirmed by pathological diagnosis and clinical recor...

BackgroundKi67 immunohistochemistry (IHC) with a cut-off of 20% by MIB-1 PharmDx assay has been approved as companion diagnostic for adjuvant abemaciclib in high-risk ER+HER2- breast cancer. We addressed the genomic risk profile high Ki67 (≥20%) cancer using 21-gene multigene (Oncotype DX test). In addition, we investigated survival outcomes and identified factors associated low group.MethodsWe...

Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) constitutes about 4% of salivary epithelial tumors and is the second common malignant epithelial salivary gland tumor involving both the major and minor salivary glands. Aims of the study is to evaluate immunohistochemical expression of Ki67 and p53 proteins in ACC. Materials and Methods: immunohistochemical analyses of fifteen cases of formalin – fixe...
