1 Matrix metalloproteinase 7, soluble Fas and Fas ligand serum levels for predicting docetaxel resistance and survival in castration-resistant prostate cancer. Docetaxel matrix metallopeptidase 7 Homo sapiens
2 RESULTS: Higher pretreatment serum MMP-7, sFas and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels were significantly associated with both docetaxel resistance (P = 0.007, P = 0.001, P < 0.001, respectively) and shorter cancer-specific survival (P < 0.001, P = 0.041, P < 0.001, respectively). Docetaxel matrix metallopeptidase 7 Homo sapiens
3 High MMP-7 level remained an independent predictor of both docetaxel resistance (hazard ratio [HR] 2.298, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.354-3.899; P = 0.002) and poor cancer-specific survival (HR 2.11, 95% CI: 1.36-3.30; P = 0.001) in multivariable analyses. Docetaxel matrix metallopeptidase 7 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSIONS: Pretreatment serum MMP-7 levels may help to select patients with CRPC who are likely to benefit from docetaxel chemotherapy. Docetaxel matrix metallopeptidase 7 Homo sapiens
