High methylation levels of PCDH10 predict poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

In this study, we show for the first time that the methylation status of PCDH10 can predict prognosis in PDAC patients with a significant impact on the outcome in terms of progression-free survival. High levels of PCDH10 promoter methylation could be useful to identify patients at high risk of disease progression, contributing to a more accurate stratification of PDAC patients for personalized clinical management.
