The genomic landscape of the Ewing Sarcoma family of tumors reveals recurrent STAG2 mutation.
2014
The Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (EFT) is a group of highly malignant small round blue cell tumors occurring in children and young adults. We report here the largest genomic survey to date of 101 EFT (65 tumors and 36 cell lines). Using a combination of whole genome sequencing and targeted sequencing approaches, we discover that EFT has a very low mutational burden (0.15 mutations/Mb) but frequent deleterious mutations in the cohesin complex subunit STAG2 (21.5% tumors, 44.4% cell lines), homozygous deletion of CDKN2A (13.8% and 50%) and mutations of TP53 (6.2% and 71.9%). We additionally note an increased prevalence of the BRCA2 K3326X polymorphism in EFT patient samples (7.3%) compared …
MamaPred: A new and innovative approach to determine recurrence risk in HR+/HER2- early-stage breast cancer using HTG EdgeSeq technology.
2021
558 Background: Genomic platforms, such as Mammaprint (Agendia) (MP) and OncoType (Genomic Health) (OT), have been validated to determine the risk of relapse in therapeutic decision-making in early-stage hormone receptor positive (HR+), epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer (BC). Discordances in risk allocation between these platforms affect up to 30% of patients. This study aims to develop the MamaPred test to improve the diagnostic performance of recurrence risk in HR+/HER2- early-stage BC. Methods: A total of 606 HR+/HER2- early-stage BC previously tested with OT [n = 287; Low Risk (LR) = 165, Intermediate Risk (IR) = 103 and High Risk (HR) = 19] and MP (n = 3…
