The tumor tissues with high co-expression of Src and STAT3 were significantly associated with a shorter overall survival in both univariate and multivariate analyses (Table 1; crude hazard ratio [CHR] = 3.92, p = 0.020; adjusted hazard ratio [AHR] = 3.87, p = 0.038), but this co-expression was not statistically significant with disease-free survival (Table 1). Here, STAT3 is linked to neoplasm.
