Kaplan-Meier curve of cancer-specific survival in 77 UC patients treated with chemotherapy against recurrence and/or metastasis according to CD44v9 expression. Patients were allocated into the CD44v9-positive group (N = 64) or CD44v9-negative group (N = 13) based on a cut-off level of 5% in CD44v9 density. Cancer-specific survival rates were significantly lower in the CD44v9-positive group than in the CD44v9-negative group (p = 0.008 by log-rank test)
