Characterizing genetic intra-tumor heterogeneity across 2,658 human cancer genomes

2018-05-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) is a mechanism of therapeutic resistance and therefore an important clinical challenge. However, the extent, origin and drivers of ITH across cancer types are poorly understood. To address this question, we extensively characterize ITH across whole-genome sequences of 2,658 cancer samples, spanning 38 cancer types. Nearly all informative samples (95.1%) contain evi...
