Project description:Data includes all available Affymetrix SNP data from a cohort of Pediatric malignant glioma samples, isolated from Formalin-fixed Paraffin embedded tissue. No clinical data is available.
Project description:The requirement of frozen tissues for microarray experiments limits the clinical usage of genome-wide expression profiling using microarray technology. The goal of this study is to test the feasibility of developing lung cancer prognosis gene signatures using genome-wide expression profiling of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, which are widely available and provide a valuable rich source for studying the association of molecular changes in cancer and associated clinical outcomes. Keywords: Lung Cancer Prognosis, Gene Expression Signature, Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded Samples We micro dissected tumor area from FFPE specimen, and used Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 arrays to obtain gene expression data.
Project description:RAS genotyping is mandatory for the prescription of anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) therapies in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. The standard genotyping is assessed on formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumour tissue. This study compares RAS and BRAF genotyping results achieved in analyzing circulating plasma DNA using OncoBEAM technique with those achieved using the standard genotyping techniques and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded samples.

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE23384: Gene profiling using archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded breast cancer specimens can generate informative microarray data: A comparison with matched fresh fine needle aspiration biopsy samples (FFPE samples) GSE23385: Gene profiling using archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded breast cancer specimens can generate informative microarray data: A comparison with matched fresh fine needle aspiration biopsy samples (FNA samples) Refer to individual Series
Project description:To investigate the microRNA profiles of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), microRNA sequencing was performed using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) and fresh-frozen clinical samples. Moreover, patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumors and cell lines were also investigated.
