Association of XRCC2 rs2040639 with the survival of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
CONCLUSION: The A-allele of XRCC2 rs2040639 is a favorable prognostic factor for disease-free survival. Patients with these genotypes may benefit from concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Additional confirmation from studies with larger samples or other ethnic populations is warranted.
