ABSTRACT: Background
The 5-year survival rate of patients with lung cancer in China is less than 20% and predicting their prognosis is challenging. We investigated the association between a common non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs7214723, in the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 1 (CAMKK1) gene and the prognosis of patients with lung cancer.Methods
Genomic DNA was extracted from the blood samples of 839 patients with lung cancer, recruited from Changhai Hospital (n = 536) and Taizhou Institute of Health Sciences (n = 352), and genotyped using the SNPscan technique. The association between patient prognosis and the genotypic data for CAMKK1 was analyzed using a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for multipl
