33 Background: In this study, we measured the mRNA expression level of cancer-critical genes from the gastric/colorectal cancer tissues obtained through endoscopic biopsy before treatments and compared its consistency with the sample tissues surgically resected from identical cases. Methods: The study was made on 13 gastric and 19 colorectal cancer cases with patients’ consent. We picked identical cases and measured mRNA expression levels from the tissues endoscopically taken before treatment and the surgically resected ones. For the measurement, DNP (DanenbergTumorProfile) method was used. Examination items are as follows: TS, DPD, TP, FPGS, GGH, DHFR, ERCC1, Topo-I, EGFR, and VEGF. Results: Upon comparing the consistency between endoscopically sampled biopsy tissues and surgically taken tissues from identical cases, it was found that eight out of ten items showed strong correlations in colorectal cancer cases. The results are as follows: FPGS(r=0.91, p<0.001); GGH(r=0.87, p<0.001); EGFR(r=0.86, p<0.001); Topo I (r=0.81, p<0.001); TS(r=0.79, p<0.001); DHFR(r=0.70, p<0.01); VEGF(r=0.67, p<0.01); and TP(r=0.62, p<0.05). In case of gastric cancers, strong correlations were found in three out of ten items with the following results: EGFR (r=0.98, p<0.001); TS (r=0.91, p<0.001; and DPD (r=0.74, p<0.05). Conclusions: Today’s progresses of preoperative chemotherapy and radiotherapy and developments of endoscopic and surgical treatments allow diverse options for treatments. In such circumstances, the significance of knowing the expression of cancer-critical genes between individuals before treatment in conducting custom-made treatment is profound. There are two issues in applying the expression of cancer-critical genes found through endoscopic biopsy: one is whether enough cancer cells can be obtained through biopsy, and the other is whether the sampled cancer cells reflect the characteristics of primary focus. While there remain issues to be addressed, certain results were achieved in this study. Currently, we are working on accumulating cases to compare them and find out whether the results can be applied to custom-made treatments.
