Modest effect of p53, EGFR and HER-2/neu on prognosis in epithelial ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis
Background: P53, egfr and her-2/neu are the most frequently studied molecular biological parameters in epithelial ovarian cancer, but their prognostic impact is still unequivocal. We performed a meta-analysis to more precisely estimate their prognostic significance. Methods: Published studies that investigated the association between p53, egfr and her-2/neu status and survival were identified. Meta-analysis was performed using a dersimonian-laird model. Publication bias was investigated using funnel plots and sources of heterogeneity were identified using meta-regression analysis. Results: A total of 62 studies were included for p53, 15 for egfr and 20 for her-2/neu. P53, egfr and her-2/neu status had a modest effect on overall survival (Pooled hr 1.47, 95% Ci 1.33-1.61 For p53; Hr 1.65, 95% Ci 1.25-2.19 For egfr and hr 1.67, 95% Ci 1.34-2.08 For her-2/neu). Meta-regression analysis for p53 showed that figo stage distribution influenced study outcome. For egfr and her-2/neu, considerable publication bias was present. Conclusions: Although p53, egfr and her-2/neu status modestly influences survival, these markers are, by themselves, unlikely to be useful as prognostic markers in clinical practice. Our study highlights the need for well-defined, prospective clinical trials and more complete reporting of results of prognostic factor studies. British journal of cancer ( 2009) 101, 149-159.
