Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Intratumor heterogeneity has been demonstrated in several cancer types, following a model of branched evolution.

Therefore the aim of this study was to characterise intratumor heterogeneity in esophageal adenocarcinoma. METHODS: Multiregional targeted sequencing of four commonly altered genes was...
