Abstract excerpt
Breast cancer remains a major global health challenge. Yet, genomic data from Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) populations are limited, restricting insights into disease drivers and therapeutic opportunities in this demographic. To address this gap, we performed whole-exome sequencing (WES) on 52 breast cancer samples, including 51 from the MENA region, to characterize somatic mutations and potential...
