Project description:This is a prospective-retrospective study to determine if the expression of the miRNA’s miR-31-3p and miR-31-5p are prognostic of patient outcomes or predictive of the benefit from anti-EGFR therapy in stage III Colon Cancer. The present study will utilize FFPE tumor samples collected from patients enrolled in the PETACC-8 study conducted by the Fédération Francophone de Cancérologie Digestive (FFCD). This phase 3 clinical trial prospectively randomized fully resected stage III colon cancer patients to receive adjuvant treatment with either FOLFOX-4 plus cetuximab or FLOFOX-4 alone.
Project description:To identify genes regulated by miR-328-3p, we transfected miR-328-3p mimics in ovarian cancer cell line OV2008, and compared the gene expression profiles between miR-328-3p mimics transfected and Negative Control miRNA-transfected cells.
