Statistical and Evolutionary Analysis of Sequenced DNA from Breast Cancer FFPE Specimens

2025-10-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Despite the introduction of instant freezing of tumor specimens, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) blocks of tissue are still commonplace in clinical practice and constitute an important reference for genetic epidemiology of cancer. We carried out a study of a collection of breast tumors paired with lymph-node metastases and analyzed using advanced computational methods, to determine how...
