Additionally, ERCC1 was found to be associated with shorter survival (HR = 2.08; 95% CI = 0.97–4.44; p = 0.059) but failed to reach statistical significance ( p = 0.059).

Even though the sample size of the present study is limited, and thus the study itself is underpowered to detect significant differences between biomarkers expression and OS, our results suggest an interesting trend in survival curves not only for RRM2 but also for most of the biomarkers specifically for ERCC1, but also for BRCA1, p53R2, and TUBB3.
Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a trend in shorter OS for patients with RRM2, TS, and ERCC1, BRCA1 overexpressed tumours.
