Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive molecular portraits of human breast tumours

Daniel C. Koboldt, +355 more
- 04 Oct 2012 - 
TL;DR: The ability to integrate information across platforms provided key insights into previously defined gene expression subtypes and demonstrated the existence of four main breast cancer classes when combining data from five platforms, each of which shows significant molecular heterogeneity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive molecular characterization of human colon and rectal cancer

Donna M. Muzny, +320 more
- 19 Jul 2012 - 
TL;DR: Integrative analyses suggest new markers for aggressive colorectal carcinoma and an important role for MYC-directed transcriptional activation and repression.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cancer genome atlas pan-cancer analysis project

John N. Weinstein, +379 more
- 01 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: The Pan-Cancer initiative compares the first 12 tumor types profiled by TCGA with a major opportunity to develop an integrated picture of commonalities, differences and emergent themes across tumor lineages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated genomic characterization of endometrial carcinoma

Gad Getz, +283 more
- 02 May 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed an integrated genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic characterization of 373 endometrial carcinomas using array-and-sequencing-based technologies, and classified them into four categories: POLE ultramutated, microsatellite instability hypermutated, copy-number low, and copy number high.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive genomic characterization of squamous cell lung cancers

Peter S. Hammerman, +345 more
- 27 Sep 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that the tumour type is characterized by complex genomic alterations, with a mean of 360 exonic mutations, 165 genomic rearrangements, and 323 segments of copy number alteration per tumour.
