dc.description.abstractThe prognostic value of SMAD4 in pancreatic cancer has been evaluated in several studies. However, the conclusions remain controversial. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the SMAD4 gene in pancreatic cancer to aid in the design of therapeutic strategies. This review adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) criteria and the proposed methodology was registered on PROSPERO. An electronic search was made in MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science and Google Scholar to identify all relevant studies. Eligible studies were those written in English including patients with Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC), who underwent pancreatic surgery with curative intent and provided data on SMAD4 gene status or SMAD4 protein expression and its association to prognosis, measured by overall survival (OS). The effect measure of interest was the hazard ratio (HR) for OS between PDAC with or without SMDA4 mutations. A total of 24 studies on SMAD4, with 4340 samples, were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. Our pooled results demonstrated that patients with tumours with SMAD4 alteration had significantly worse prognosis for OS (HR= 1.43, 95% CI = 1.17–1.76, p-value = 0.002). This systematic review and meta-analysis support the use of driver mutations in the SMAD4 gene as a prognostic marker for pancreatic cancer.eng
