Journal ArticleDOI

Tracking the Evolution of Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer

Mariam Jamal-Hanjani, +82 more
TL;DR: Intratumor heterogeneity mediated through chromosome instability was associated with an increased risk of recurrence or death, a finding that supports the potential value of chromosome instability as a prognostic predictor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic ctDNA analysis depicts early-stage lung cancer evolution

Christopher Abbosh, +119 more
- 25 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that phylogenetic ct DNA profiling tracks the subclonal nature of lung cancer relapse and metastasis, providing a new approach for ctDNA-driven therapeutic studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal diversity in genomic instability processes defines lung cancer evolution

TL;DR: 25 spatially distinct regions from seven operable NSCLCs were sequenced and found evidence of branched evolution, with driver mutations arising before and after subclonal diversification, and pronounced intratumor heterogeneity in copy number alterations, translocations, and mutations associated with APOBEC cytidine deaminase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Allele-Specific HLA Loss and Immune Escape in Lung Cancer Evolution

Nicholas McGranahan, +219 more
- 30 Nov 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is found that HLA LOH occurs in 40% of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) and is associated with a high subclonal neoantigen burden, APOBEC-mediated mutagenesis, upregulation of cytolytic activity, and PD-L1 positivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gap in life expectancy from preventable physical illness in psychiatric patients in Western Australia: Retrospective analysis of population based registers

TL;DR: The gap in their life expectancy compared with the general population has widened since 1985 and public efforts should be directed towards improving physical health to reduce mortality in people with mental illness, in addition to ongoing efforts to prevent suicide.
