Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: A significant number of women with serous ovarian cancer are intrinsically refractory to platinum-based treatment. We analyzed somatic DNA copy number variation and gene expression data to identify key mechanisms associated with primary resistance in advanced-stage serous cancers. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Genome-wide copy number variation was measured in 118 ovarian tumors using high-resolution...
