Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To assess the prevalence of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway alterations in pure high-grade ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and DCIS associated with invasive breast cancer (IBC), and to determine whether DCIS and adjacent IBCs harbor distinct PI3K pathway aberrations. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Eighty-nine cases of pure high-grade DCIS and 119 cases of high-grade DCIS associated with IBC were...
