CDKN2A hypermethylation | colorectal cancer | not applicable | N/A | Clinical Study - Meta-analysis | Prognostic | In a meta-analysis, CDKN2A promoter hypermethylation was associated with poor overall survival (HR=1.65, 95% CI 1.29-2.11), lymphovascular invasion (OR=1.68, 95% CI 1.15-2.47), and lymph node metastasis (OR=1.68, 95% CI 1.09-2.59) in colorectal cancer patients, and correlated significantly with poor overall survival in patients from Europe (HR=1.49, 95% CI 1.28-1.74) and Asia (HR=3.30, 95% CI 1.68-6.46) (PMID: 23703248). | 23703248 |
