摘要: Summary Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PIK3CA) gene amplification in lung cancer, and to explore its prognostic value. Methods: A total 647 tumor samples from 290 patients were included study. The ratio PIK3CA signals/centromere 3 signals cancer cells was estimated by fluorescence situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. Results: Both gains amplifications significantly more frequent squamous cell (gains: 19.4%; amplifications: 34.1%; p<0.0001) large carcinoma 22.4%; 20.4%; compared with adenocarcinomas (gains 3.0%; 4.0%). Conversely, displayed deletions locus than other two histologic types (p<0.0001). No clear correlation between status pT stage, pN stage or degree differentiation found. Ki67 increased increasing copy number: 47 tumors a deletion had mean 16, while 103 showed 28 (p=0.004). Significant association proliferation PIK 3CA found (p<0.05). However, no significant seen patient survival amplifications, gains. Conclusion: carcinomas higher adenocarcinomas. results suggest that could be promising target for selective therapy.
