Multi-region sequencing unveils novel actionable targets and spatial heterogeneity in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
11 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) ranks fourth among cancer-related deaths in China due to the lack of actionable molecules. We performed whole-exome and T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire sequencing on multi-regional tumors, normal tissues and blood samples from 39 ESCC patients. The data revealed 12.8% of ERBB4 mutations at patient level and functional study supported its oncogenic role. 18% of patients...
