Abstract excerpt
Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas) are ultra-rare mesenchymal tumors lacking a molecular classification to guide therapy. Here we perform comprehensive multi-omic profiling of an unselected PEComa cohort. We identify frequent MITF rearrangements involving actin gene partners (ACTA2, ACTG1 and ACTB). Anatomical stratification reveals cyclin-dependent kinase module mutations in gynecologic tumors,...
