PIK3CA and KRAS Amplification in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and their Impact on the Inflammatory Tumor Microenvironment and Prognosis

Gene amplifications of PIK3CA or KRAS induce a downstream activation of the AKT-mTOR or RAF-ERK-pathways. Interactions of the active AKT pathway have been implicated in the inflammatory tumor microenvironment. Nothing is known about these interactions or prognostic power in esophageal adenocarcinoma...
