Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma is the most common localization of HNSCC representing more than 150000 new cases annually. Further research is mandatory for the identification of prognostic markers in order to better guide therapeutic strategy and improve patient survival and quality of life. The aim of the study was the assessment of the prognostic role of mRNA expression, CNVs and IHC expression of EGFR, cyclin D1, and associated effectors of the Akt/mTOR intracellular signaling pathway as well as PTEN and p53 in patients with localized resectable laryngeal cancer. In total, 289 patients with localized (stage Ι-ΙΙΙ) squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx were retrospectively included in the analysis. Tissue microarrays were constructed from FFPE tissue samples for IHC analysis. Samples with sufficient tumor tissue were used for DNA and RNA extraction for CNV and mRNA expression respectively. After a median follow up of 7.5 months, 93 recurrences and 117 deaths were observed. CNV amp ...

Ο καρκίνος του λάρυγγα αντιπροσωπεύει την πιο συχνή εντόπιση καρκίνου κεφαλής και τραχήλου με περισσότερες από 150000 νέες περιπτώσεις κάθε χρόνο. Περαιτέρω έρευνα απαιτείται για την ανεύρεση προγνωστικών δεικτών, ώστε η καλύτερη επιλογή θεραπευτικής στρατηγικής να βελτιώσει τόσο την επιβίωση όσο και την ποιότητα ζωής των ασθενών αυτών. Σκοπός της διδακτορικής διατριβής ήταν η μελέτη της προγνωστικής σημασίας των γονιδιακών αf EGFR and cyclin D1 showed fair correlation. We also observed several statistically significant correlations among mRNA expression RQ values as well IHC scores of biomarkers, probably reflecting their biological interaction withing the signaling pathway. Most of the corrlations that we observed between biomarker expression and clinicopathological parameters were either statistically weak or of indeterminate biological significance. Univariate analysis revealed fairly weak and statistically insignificant prognostic correlations, namely of mTOR mRNA overexrpession with DFS and AKT3 with OS. The interaction of mTOR and cyclin D1 mRNA overexpression was prognostic for DFS and this remained significant in multivariate analysis, in which clinicopathological parameters such as tumor localization, N stage and total laryngectomy, were also prognostically and statistically significant for both DFS and OS. In conclusion, the study of CNV and mRNA expression of cyclin D1, EGFR and associated effectors of the intracellular Akt/mTOR pathway in squamous cell laryngeal carcinoma is feasible and correlates with their immunohistochemical expression. This analysis did not reveal any statistically significant prognostic role for the studied biomarkers with the exception of the interaction of mRNA overexpression of mTOR and cyclin D1, which remained statistically significant for DFS in multivariate analysis (p=0.001). Only clinicopathological parameters such as tumor localization, N stage and total laryngectomy proved to be independent predictors of outcome in multivariate analysis. Further studies are needed in order to shed light into this interaction and explore probable future therapeutic targets for these patients.
