Clinical trial

Evaluation of Immunohistochemical Expression of Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER 2) and Its Association With Clinicopathological Variables in Patients With Pancreatic Duct Adenocarcinoma in Upper Egypt

Name
Soh-Med-23-09-4PD
Description
Pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma is a highly aggressive carcinoma that is associated with a poor prognosis. Detection of novel biological markers that are specifically over expressed in pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma and their subsequent targeting by anti cancer therapeutic modalities may improve patient's survival.
