The present study aims to evaluate cyclin D1 and p53 expression in resectable OSCC, and to determine their prognostic significance at the end of 5 year follow-up: A total of 100 patients aged 31–74 years, stage 3/4 were recruited. Cyclin D1 and p53 expression in the tumour tissue was estimated by IHC and was statistically correlated with demographic and clinicopathological data and prognosis was evaluated at the end of 5 year outcome. The positive expression rate of cyclin D1 was 50% and p53 it was 40% and they neither showed any statistical significant correlation with each other nor with demographic or clinicopathological data. The OS was 32%.Negative and weak expression predicted better outcomes with regard to DFS and OS. DFS and OS were significantly worse in patients of overexpressed cyclin D1 (p < 0.001) and p53 (p = 0.008). Cyclin D1 is a better prognostic marker as compared to p53 for both DFS and OS. p53 expression (high versus low) for disease free non-survival and overall nonsurvival showed an OR of 3.576 (p = 0.003) and 8.803(p < 0.001) respectively for strong expression while in case of cyclin D1 it showed an OR of 13.067(p < 0.001) and 37.465(p < 0.001) for strong expression.So higher the level of expression of tumour markers higher is the odds ratio so poorer is the prognosis. Overexpression of cyclin D1 and p53 was significantly associated with poor prognosis in terms of DFS and OS View on the web Inoreader. Take back control of your news feed.
