Expression of ribonucleoside reductase subunit M1, but not excision repair cross-complementation group 1, is predictive in muscle-invasive bladder cancer treated with chemotherapy and radiation

The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic and predictive values of ribonucleoside reductase subunit M1 (RRM1) and excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) expression in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer treated with chemoradiotherapy. The expression of RRM1 and ERCC1 in pretreatment tumor samples of retrospectively identified patients was determined by immunohistochemical analysis. A total of 39 patients were...
