Research Abstract

A real-time PCR-based copy number assay revealed that FGF3/FGF4 amplification was observed in responders to sorafenib, but not observed in non-responders(p=0.006). The clinicopathological features showed that multiple lung metastases and a poorly differentiated histological type were frequently observed in responders. Our findings may provide a novel insight into the molecular background of HCC and sorafenib responders, warranting further prospective biomarker studies.
