Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Mutated tumor suppressor genes (TSG) such as TP53, STK11, and MGA are widely-reported. We hypothesized the presence of single mutation or co-occurring mutations in these specific genes may represent a significant therapeutic target for lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS: We sequenced lung adenocarcinoma samples from 677 East-Asian patients, combined them with those from cBioPortal public database...
