## Abstract In this study, we examined whether free DNA extracted from the plasma of breast cancer patients, characterized as tumor DNA, could predict the overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients. In total, 147 patients and 35 healthy controls were studied. Plasma DNA was assessed in the sam
## Background and objectives: The relationship of the tumor dna content to survival of patients with advanced epithelial cancer has not yet been clarified. a large amount of contradictory data exists in the literature. this study analyzes the putative relationship between ploidy and advanced ovaria
Paraffin-embedded primary tumor specimens from 48 patients with breast cancer were examined for DNA ploidy, S-phase fraction (SPF), and concanavalin A (Con A) reactivity. The results were correlated with clinicopathological prognostic factors, including patients' age and menopausal status, stage of
