Prognostic molecular markers in hepatocellular carcinoma (Review article

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 5th commonest malignancy worldwide and is the third most common cause of cancer-related death. The prevalence is different in the world. The ability to predict patients at higher risk of recurrence and with a poor prognosis would help to guide surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment according to individual risk. As understanding of hepatocarcinogenesi...

Prognostic and Predictive Clinical, Pathological and Molecular Markers for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma: review of articles

Approximately 90% of all head and neck malignancies and 94% of oral malignancies are squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Tobacco smoking is considered as the most important causative agent for SCC. Despite aggressive and multidisciplinary treatment approaches, there has been no significant improvement in 5-year survival over the past 20 years. Several prognostic and predictive clinical, pathological...

Molecular Chaperones as Prognostic Markers of Neuroblastoma

Molecular prognostic markers in pancreatic cancer.

BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive human tumors and is virtually incurable. Its incidence in the United States has tripled in the past 50 years. The tumor is a frequent cause of cancer death in both men and women. The current treatment options are inadequate and probably reflect the fact that the etiologic factors and the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer are unknown. ...
