Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) has a highly invasive and metastatic phenotype. However, little is known about its genetic drivers. To address this, we report the largest cohort of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of IBC cases. METHODS: We performed WGS of 20 IBC samples and paired normal blood DNA to identify genomic alterations. For comparison, we used 23 matched non-IBC samples from the Cancer Genome...
