Background: Despite multiple therapeutic modalities, the overall survival of patients with gastric adenocarcinoma remains poor, especially for advanced tumor stages. Although the tyrosine kinase MerTK has shown therapeutic relevance in several tumor entities, its potential effects in gastric adenocarcinoma have not yet been sufficiently characterized.
Methods: MerTK expression and its influence on patient survival were evaluated by immunohistochemistry in a cohort of 140 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma.
