Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Clinically well-annotated FFPE specimens from 317 patients with HNSCC treated by surgery were examined by all-exon TP53 sequencing using a next-generation sequencer and p53 proein phenotype by immunohistochemistry. Two risk categories were classified as“p53 adverse function”and“p53 favorable function”based on TP53 mutation status and p53 protein phenotype. Local control rates were compared between the risk groups using Fisher’s exact test. Multivariate analysis identified“p53 adverse function”as an independent poor predictor of overall survival, local control, and distant metastasis-free survival. All-exon TP53 sequencing and p53 protein phenotype analysis using FFPE specimens can accurately predict clinical outcomes.
