Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) ranks among the ten most common malignancies worldwide. Cancer of unknown primary presents as disseminated disease, has a dismal prognosis and remains a diagnosis of exclusion. The natural history and biology of the disease is poorly understood, and efforts are focused on identifying the specific 'CUP signature'. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We collected and analysed all...
