Increased Expression of Oct4, Nanog and CD24 Predicts Poor Response to Chemo-Radiotherapy and Unfavourable Prognosis in Locally Advanced Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

CONCLUSIONS: Expressions of Oct4, Nanog and CD24 have significant association with treatment response and survival in patients with locally advanced OSCC treated with neoadjuvant chemo-radiation. Survival of these patients is significantly affected by ypN stage, ypTNM stage, expression of all three biomarkers, clinical and pathological response to neoadjuvant therapy.<br />.
