The present study evaluated the effectiveness of a NOS inhibitor and a CXCR4 antagonist, given as single agents or in combination, in a xenotransplanted mouse model of adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the oral floor.
EGFR was the most expressed TKRs (71%) and it was found across all histotypes. c-Kit expression was mainly restricted to adenoid cystic carcinoma (78%) while HER2 expression, mostly sustained by gene amplification, correlated with salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) in 44% of cases and adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified (AD, NOS) in 21% of cases.
