Abstract excerpt
Intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) is associated with tumor development, prognosis, immune evasion and therapeutic effects. We proposed the Defining ITH based on EntRopy (DITHER) algorithm for evaluating ITH. We first evaluated the entropies of somatic mutation profiles and copy number alteration (CNA) profiles in a tumor, respectively, and defined their average as the ITH level for the tumor. Using DITHER, we...
