Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: p53 plays a key role in the DNA repair process and response to ionising radiation. We sought to determine the clinical phenotype of TP53 mutations and p53 pathway alterations in patients with rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and Ewing sarcoma (ES) treated with radiation. METHODS: Of patients with available genomic sequencing, we identified 109 patients with RMS and ES treated to a total of 286 radiation sites....
