Abstract excerpt
Whole genome sequencing of matched tumor-normal sample pairs is becoming routine in cancer research. However, analysis of somatic copy-number changes from sequencing data is still challenging because of insufficient sequencing coverage, unknown tumor sample purity and subclonal heterogeneity. Here we describe a computational framework, named SomatiCA, which explicitly accounts for tumor purity and subclonality in...
