Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tumor metastases to lymph nodes and distant organs are associated with worse prognosis in gastric cancer. However, little is known about the genetic profiles, subclonal architecture, and evolutional processes across primary tumors and metastases. METHODS: We analyzed the genetic alterations of 106 multiregional samples including primary tumors, lymph node metastases, and visceral metastases from 10...
