Deleted in breast cancer 1 as a potential prognostic biomarker in human cancers: a pooled analysis of 2,254 patients.

Abstract:

Background:Deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1) is believed to be involved in human cancers. However, it is still uncertain whether DBC1 expression can be regarded as a prognostic factor in patients with various cancers. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the relationship between high levels of DBC1 and prognosis in tumor patients. Methods:Electronic databases were searched and 14 studies meeting the selection criteria were included. Overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), and 95% CIs were extracted and analyzed. HRs from individual studies were pooled using fixed-or random-effects models, depending on the heterogeneity of the included studies, and publication bias analyses were also performed to increase the reliability of the results. Results:A total of 2,254 patients with tumors from 14 published studies were included in the meta-analysis. DBC1 overexpression was associated with worse OS (univariate analysis: HR=2.94; 95% CI: [2.38-3.63]; multivariate analysis: HR=1.98, 95% CI: [1.21-3.25]) and RFS (univariate analysis: HR=2.83, 95% CI: [2.30-3.49]; multivariate analysis: HR=2.71, 95% CI: [2.07-3.53]) for various tumors. No publication bias was observed according to test of funnel plot asymmetry and Egger's test. Conclusion:Current evidence supports the conclusion that the upregulation of DBC1 is correlated with poor survival among tumor patients, suggesting that DBC1 represents an independent prognostic factor significantly associated with OS and RFS, and could serve as a novel therapeutic target in patients with tumors. Nevertheless, further large-scale prospective trials and well-designed studies are warranted to confirm this finding.
