The prognosis of operated patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is poor despite thorough pre-operative staging. An improved preselection is needed of patients likely to profit from surgery. This study was undertaken to evaluate the prognostic significance of nuclear p53 overexpression in
We examined the p53 status of 108 NSCLCs compared to the expression of MLH1 and MSH2 proteins. p53 overexpression was demonstrated by IHC in 64% of patients examined, whereas p53 mutations were detected in 43%. Twenty-two percent of mutations were located outside of the hot-spot (exons 5-8) area. p5
The prognostic value of cell nuclear DNA content, S-phase fraction and p53 protein accumulation in esophageal squamouscell carcinomas was studied in a consecutive series of 80 patients from a high-incidence region of southern Thailand, who underwent esophagectomy between I983 and 1993.

Eighteen patients with advanced non-smallcell lung cancer (NSCLC) received recombinant beta interferon, 90 million units three times weekly. No complete or partial responses were seen. Five patients had stable disease for several months. Most patients experienced some toxicity, most commonly fever a
