Abstract excerpt
To test the traditional model of tumor progression, Darwinian-type evolution, against the more recent Big Bang model, we selected 6 microsatellite-stable colorectal standard-type adenocarcinomas and their synchronous lymph node and liver metastases. Somatic genomic variants were identified by whole-exome sequencing (WES) of large tumor fragments from the primaries and 1 liver metastasis each, and used to design...
