Abstrakt: Topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) is a crucial enzyme that plays a vital role in DNA replication and transcription mechanisms. Dysregulated expression of TOP2A has been associated with various malignancies, including hepatocellular carcinoma, prostate cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer. In this review, we summarized the prognostic relevances of TOP2A in various types of cancer. The increased expression of TOP2A has been linked to resistance to therapy and reduced survival rates. Therefore, evaluating TOP2A levels could assist in identifying patients who may derive advantages from molecular targeted therapy. The amplification of TOP2A has been linked to a positive response to chemotherapy regimens that contain anthracycline. Nevertheless, the overexpression of TOP2A also indicates a heightened likelihood of disease recurrence and unfavorable prognosis. The prognostic significance of TOP2A has been extensively studied in various types of cancer. The increased expression of TOP2A is associated with poor clinical outcomes, indicating its potential as a valuable biomarker for assessing risk and stratifying treatment in these malignancies. However, further investigation is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which TOP2A influences cancer progression and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target.
