Abstract excerpt
Lethal prostate cancer has passed through at least two evolutionary bottlenecks: acquisition of metastatic potential and development of castration resistance. A better understanding of how this affects genetic heterogeneity across metastatic sites is needed to develop strategies to block metastatic spread and to overcome resistance. By leveraging deep whole-exome sequencing of 93 tumors from 26 patients, we...
