To evaluate the correlation of drug resistance proteins LRP (Lung Resistance Protein), Pgp (P-glycoprotein), MRP1 (Multidrug Related Protein, Multidrug Resistance-Associated Protein), MRP3 a MRP5 with clinical - pathological factors and to find the clinical outcome of these data in ovarian cancer patients.Prospective study.Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital Hradec Kralove.111 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent primary surgery from 2006-2010 had specimens stained with imunohistochemistry for LRP, Pgp, MRP1, MRP3, MRP5.The histological subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer correlated to the LRP, Pgp, MRP1 and MRP3 expression. Patients with late ovarian cancer had a higher MRP1 compared to early stage ovarian cancer (I+II 71.6% (CI 60-100), III+IV 83.6% (CI 100-100),p = 0.03). Correlation of MRP1 with grading was found(G1 60.83% (CI 10-100), G2 36.80% (CI 20-100),G3 88.87% (CI 100-100), p = 0.039). Patients with high Pgp, MRP1 and MRP3 expression had significantly shorter progression-free survival. (Kaplan-Meier test - PFS, Pgp85% Med PFS 23 months (CI 8-37) vs85% Med PFS 11 months (CI 7-17), p = 0.054), (MRP185% Med PFS 33 months (CI 11-49) vs85% Med PFS 11 months(CI 7-16), p = 0.046).We found clinical significance of LRP, Pgp, MRP1 and MRP3 expression in ovarian cancer patients. MRP5 expression did not correlate with neither histo-pathological parameters nor progression free survival. MRP1 have some additional predictive and prognostic value for the clinical outcome of patients with ovarian carcinoma. |
