Overexpression of Reactive Oxygen Species Modulator 1 Predicts Unfavorable Clinical Outcome in EGFR-Mutant Lung Adenocarcinomas Treated With Targeted Therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) is a novel protein that regulates the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species. Romo1 has been shown to be associated with poor survival in various clinical settings for the treatment of lung cancer. In this study, we evaluated whether tissue Romo1 expression was associated with clinical outcomes in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated lung adenocarcinoma treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).

Method

Romo1 expression in tumor tissues was examined by immunohistochemistry and evaluated by histologic score. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the clinicopathologic parameters, including Romo1 expression, which may be associated with progression-free survival (PFS
