PDGFRA and glioblastoma: Thus, EGFR amplification at chromosome 7p11.2 can be found in between one third and half of all GBM patients as the only chromosomal region amplified – including a variable number of amplified genes – or it can be find in the same tumor in combination with amplification of genes located at other chromosomal regions, such as the MDM2, MDM4, PDGFRA and CDK4 genes encoded in chromosomes 12q15, 1q32.1, 4q12 and 12q14.1 [11, 14, 38], respectively.
