Malignant tumor metastasizing, comprised of several consecutive steps beginning with local cancer cell invasion, is a key factor which compromises the prognosis of cancer patients and is responsible for 90% of the lethal outcome. 2/3 of our diagnosed patients show with locally advanced process and/or metastatic disease (stage III/IV).
Researching key molecular and cellular mechanisms tied to development and metastasizing of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma is of clinical importance to developing and using molecular target therapy.
Based on popular literature studies the emphasize was put on the following genes: TP53, CDKN2A – accentuating on exons 1,2,3, and PIK3CA – exons 9, 20, as primarily connected to the higher mutation potential of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
Researching the genetic similarity between carcinoma and metastasis could potentially help understanding the genotype and mutation potential of Head and Neck squamous cell carcinomas. The practical potential use of this knowledge is the developing of predictive markers and better therapeutic algorithms for diagnosed patients.

Туморното метастазиране, включващо няколко последователни стъпки, започвайки от инвазия на раковите клетки в околните тъкани, е ключовият фактор, който компрометира прогнозата на раково болните пациенти и отговаря за 90% от смъртността. 2/3 от диагностицираните пациенти са с локално авансирал процес и/ или метастатична болест (стадий III или IV).
Проучването на молекулярни и клетъчни механизми, водещи до формирането и метастазирането на плоскоклетъчния карцином от ларингеален произход, би било от клинична полза за разработването на молекулярна таргетна терапия.
На базата на обширен литературен обзор акцентът е поставен върху следните гени – TP53, CDKN2A – exons 1,2,3 and PIK3CA – exons 9, 20, като потенциални отговорници за повишаване метастатичния потенциал на плосколетъчния карцином от ларингеален произход.
Изследването на генетично сродство между карцином и метастаза би имало теоретичен принос към опознаването на генотипа и мутационния статус на плоскоклетъчните карциноми на глава и шия, чийто практически потенциал се изразява като прогностична стойност за преживяемостта на онкоболните и подобряване на терапевтичния алгоритъм при диагностицирани пациенти.
