Regarding VEGFA, non-cancer subjects had values ranging between 10 and 36.9 pg/ml preoperatively (mean, 21.145 pg/ml), in contrast to breast cancer patients who showed values between 18 and 108.54 pg/ml (mean, 48.17 pg/ml), a difference which proved to be statistically significant (P = 0.038). This evidence concerns the gene VEGFA and breast cancer.
