Screening for Prognostic Biomarkers in Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma by Tissue Micro Arrays Analysis Identifies P53 as an Independent Prognostic Marker of Overall Survival.

ABSTRACT: Advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has poor but heterogeneous prognosis. Apart from Ki67 index, no prognostic or predictive biomarker has been validated in advanced ACC, so far. We aimed at analyzing expression of a large panel of proteins involved in known altered pathways in ACC (cell cycle, Wnt/ß-catenin, methylation) to identify and prioritize potential prognostic or predictive parameters metastatic ACC population. We conducted a retrospective multicentric study. Overall survival (OS) and partial response according to RECIST 1.1 were primary endpoints. TMA was set up and 16 markers were analyzed. Modified ENSAT and GRAS parameters were characterized for prognostic adjustment. Results: We included 66 patients with a mean age at metastatic diagnosis of 48.7 ± 15.5 years. Median surv
