Igf1r Immunohistochemistry In Ewing's Sarcoma As Predictor Of Response To Targeted Therapy., Elizabeth Gonzalez, Marilyn Bui, Atif Ahmed
Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers
Objectives: Ewing's sarcoma is an aggressive malignancy of bone and soft tissue in children and young adults. Despite advances in modern therapy, metastasis can occur and results in high mortality. The objective of this study was to identify whether the signaling transduction proteins, insulin growth factor receptor (IGF1R) and S6 kinase (S6K), can predict poor prognosis in Ewing's sarcoma.
Methods: After the Institutional Research Board approval, immunohistochemical experiments on tissue microarray slides containing 32 archived Ewing's sarcoma tumor samples were performed with antibodies against IGF1Rb and p-S6K. Immunohistochemical staining results were correlated with patients' clinical data including clinical stage and …
