Genes Signal Late-stage Laryngeal Cancer, Poorer Outcome

Researchers have identified tumor-suppressing genes that may provide a more accurate diagnosis of disease stage and survival for laryngeal cancer patients than current standards. The study finds genetic abnormalities of the ESR1 gene and the HIC1 gene are predictors of late-stage laryngeal cancer and shorter survival, respectively, for patients with the disease.
