Cancer stem cell marker ALDH1 and CD44 expression: Independent predictors of survival outcome in oral cancer patients
This study aimed to identify ALDH1 and CD44 expressions as cancer stem cell markers and independent predictors of lower five-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), respectively. These markers effectively predict oral cancer prognosis and treatment response, enabling clinicians to improve patient outcomes.
