Heterogeneous MYCN amplification in neuroblastoma: a SIOP Europe Neuroblastoma Study
1 May 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: In neuroblastoma (NB), the most powerful prognostic marker, the MYCN amplification (MNA), occasionally shows intratumoural heterogeneity (ITH), i.e. coexistence of MYCN-amplified and non-MYCN-amplified tumour cell clones, called heterogeneous MNA (hetMNA).
