Abstract excerpt

Cancer has traditionally been studied using the disease site of origin as the organizing framework. However, recent advances in molecular genetics have begun to challenge this taxonomy, as detailed molecular profiling of tumors has led to discoveries of subsets of tumors that have profiles that p...
