Chromoanasynthesis is a common mechanism that leads to ERBB2 amplifications in a cohort of early stage HER2+ breast cancer samples
13 Jul 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: HER2 positive (HER2+) breast cancers involve chromosomal structural alterations that act as oncogenic driver events. METHODS: We interrogated the genomic structure of 18 clinically-defined HER2+ breast tumors through integrated analysis of whole genome and transcriptome sequencing, coupled with clinical information. RESULTS: ERBB2 overexpression in 15 of these tumors was associated with ERBB2...
