Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common tumor in Southern China, but the oncogene mutational status of NPC patients has not been clarified. Using time-of-flight mass spectrometry, 238 mutation hotspots in 19 oncogenes were examined in 123 NPC patients. The relationships between mutational status and clinical data were assessed with a χ(2) or Fisher's exact test. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method with the log-rank test. In 123 patients, 21 (17.1%) NPC tumors were po ...[more]
