Functionally Assessing Candidate Drivers Advances Precision Cancer Medicine.

Cancer cell - 8 Aug 2016

Scott Kenneth L, Powers Scott

Abstract excerpt

The complexity of genomic alterations in cancer has made it difficult to identify oncogenic drivers for the development of targeted therapies. The study by Berger et al. in this issue of Cancer Cell demonstrates that high-throughput functional profiling can uncover impactful mutations and oncogenic driver alleles.
