Abstract excerpt

Discoveries of the roles of RAS oncogenes in cancer development four decades ago opened the door to proving that tumor development is driven by somatic mutations' altering the genomes of cancer cells. These discoveries led to illusions about the simplicity of cancer pathogenesis and how cancer could be cured.
