Description
Chromosome 1p: Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) refers to the loss of genetic material normally found on the short arm of one of the patient's two copies of chromosome 1. Codeletion of Chromosome 1p and 19q is a diagnostic, prognostic and predictive marker for gliomas and is strongly associated with the oligodendroglioma phenotype.
Rationale
Chromosome 1p: Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) is a Registry Data Collection Variable in AJCC. It was previously collected as Brain, CS SSF #5.
