O6-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) expression and low level microsatellite instability (MSI low) in fresh frozen cancers, excluding MSI high tumours
MGMT expression | Total | ||
Undetectable/reduced | Normal | ||
MSI low | 29 | 13 | 42 |
Non-MSI low | 15 | 2 | 17 |
Total | 44 | 15 | 59 |
Note that MSI low cannot be scored in the cell lines owing to lack of constitutional DNA.
For this analysis, p = 0.11 (Fisher’s exact test).
