Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the allelic discrimination. The correlation between genotype and overall survival was evaluated using the multivariate analysis and Kaplan-Meier approach.RESULTS: Thirty-eight out of 94(40%) patients displayed a TT genotype, 29 out of 94(31%) a CT genotype and 27 out of 94(29%) a CC genotype. The median survival of TT(25 mo) genotype carriers was longer than CT(12 mo) or CC(8 mo) genotype carriers. The favorable TT genotype predicted better overall survival(OS)(2-year OS: 48%; P =0.01) compared with CT(2-year OS: 18%) or CC(2-year OS: 15%) genotype. However, dichotomization between C-genotypes(CC + CT) and T-genotypes(TT) revealed significantly lower survival rates(2-year OS: 16%; P = 0.01) for C allele carriers.CONCLUSION: Our data provided strong evidence that the GNAS1 T393 C genetic polymorphism influenced the prognosis in advanced non-small lung cancer with a worse outcome for C allele carriers.展开更多
