BackgroundProtein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) played different role in different solid tumors, and was associated with the prognosis of solid tumors. However, the roles existed controversy. This meta-analysis was performed to determine whether PTP1B was relevant to the prognosis of solid tumors.Materials And MethodsA literature search in Web of Science, Embase and PubMed databases were performed up to November 1, 2021. A meta-analysis dealed with PTP1B assessment in solid tumors, providing clinical stages and survival comparisons according to the PTP1B status.ResultsHigh PTP1B expression was significantly associated with later clinical stage of solid tumors (Odds ratio [OR] 2.25, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.71-2.98, P < .001). For solid tumors, the hazard ratio (HR) for disease free survival (DFS) detrimental with high PTP1B expression compared with low PTP1B expression was 1.07 (95%CI: 0.67-1.73, P = .77) with the obvious heterogeneity (P = .03, I2 = 66%). The HR of overall survival (OS) for solid tumors with high PTP1B expression versus low PTP1B expression was 1.26 (95%CI: 1.03-1.55, P = .03) with significant publication bias (t = 3.28, P = .005). Subgroup analysis indicated that the high expression of PTP1B was remarkably correlated with poor OS in colorectal carcinoma, only (HR = 1.43; 95%CI: 1.18-1.74; P = .003).ConclusionsHigh PTP1B expression is significantly associated with later clinical stage of solid tumors. The high expression of PTP1B is remarkably correlated with poor OS in colorectal carcinoma, only. There is no definite conclusion that PTP1B was, or not associated with DFS and OS of solid tumors because of heterogeneity and publication bias. Whether PTP1B can be used as a biomarker for predicting the prognosis of solid tumors needs further study.Copyright © 2022 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
