Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a
pivotal role in the development of neovascularization in both
physiological and pathological processes, e.g., developmental
and reproductive angiogenesis, proliferative retinopathies,
and cancers. Several solid tumors produce ample amounts of
VEGF, which stimulates proliferation and migration of en-
dothelial cells, thereby inducing neovascularization by a
paracrine mechanism. Recently, VEGF expression has been
shown to significantly affect the prognosis of different kinds
of human cancer. Because neoangiogenesis represents an
important prognostic indicator of poor prognosis in non-
small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we investigated the influ-
ence of VEGF during progression of this type of cancer and
its relationship to tumoral neovascularization. VEGF cx-
pression was significantly associated with new vessel forma-
tion (r = 0.44; P < 0.0001). Moreover, in univariate analysis,
VEGF expression significantly affected overall and disease-
free survival (P 0.00003 and P 0.0004, respectively).
Backward stepwise regression analysis indicated that VEGF
expression was an independent prognostic factor in patients
with NSCLC. These findings support the hypothesis that
VEGF is an important angiogenic factor in primary NSCLC
and may help in predicting the outcome of this group of
cancers.
Introduction
Development and progression of human tumors require a
newly formed vascular network ( I . 2 . Because increased vas-
cular density has shown to correlate with a higher incidence of

target for antineoplastic therapies (4).
Various growth factors have been shown to stimulate an-

ing neoplastic diseases. Among these. VEGF seems to play a
crucial role in the proliferation and migration of endothelial
cells. providing nourishment to the growing tumors and making
the tumorcells establish continuity with the host vasculature (5).
Recent studies have demonstrated an association between
VEGF expression and tumor aggressiveness both in experimen-
tal and human models such as gliomas (6 and gastric (7. 8),
colonic (9), renal ( 10), mammary ( 1 1 ). and lung carcinomas
( 1 2). Because of the number of microvessels has been reported
to be an independent indicator of poor prognosis in NSCLC.3 we
investigated the VEGF expression in a series of NSCLCs in an
attempt to analyze its relation to neovascularization and out-
come of this type of cancer.
Materials and Methods
Patients and Tumor Tissues
Resected specimens were analyzed from 105 patients with
NSCLC submitted to wedge resection, lobectomy, or pneumo-
nectomy at the Santa Chiara Hospital of the Pisa University.
Patients underwent surgical resection between March 1991 and
December 1994. There were 96 males and 9 females (mean age.
62.1; range. 42-77). Follow-up lasted until March 1996. with a
median of S 1 months (range. 2 1-60). Patients had not received
chemotherapy or radiation before surgery. Tumor samples. oh-
tamed at surgery. were formalin fixed and paraffin embedded
for histological exatiiination and immunohistochemical analy-
sis. Tumor fragments were analyzed according to the WHO
histological classification ( 13) and the guidelines of the Amer-
ican Joint Committee on Cancer Staging ( 14 with regard to the
pathological features.
Inimunohistochemical Procedures
VEGF Expression. Immunostaining for VEGF was per-
formed using the ABC method. Sections were dewaxed in
xylene, taken through ethanol, and then incubated with 0.3%
hydrogen peroxide in methanol for 10 mm to block the endog-
enous peroxidase activity. After washing with PBS and incuba-
tion with 10% normal goat serutii, the sections were incubated
