Genomic and Clinical Analysis of Amplification of the 13q31 Chromosomal Region in Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Report from the Children's Oncology Group
10 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study determined the molecular characteristics and clinical significance of amplification of the 13q31 chromosomal region in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS), an aggressive pediatric cancer with frequent PAX3-FOXO1 and PAX7-FOXO1 gene fusions. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The 13q31 amplicon was localized in an initial panel of ARMS cases using oligonucleotide arrays. A fluorescence in situ hybridization...
