Comparison of discrimination methods for the classification of tumors using gene expression data

TL;DR: Different discrimination methods for the classification of tumors based on gene expression data include nearest-neighbor classifiers, linear discriminant analysis, and classification trees, which are applied to datasets from three recently published cancer gene expression studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct Sets of Genetic Alterations in Melanoma

TL;DR: The genetic alterations identified in melanoma at different sites and with different levels of sun exposure indicate that there are distinct genetic pathways in the development of melanoma and implicate CDK4 and CCND1 as independent oncogenes in melanomas without mutations in BRAF or N-RAS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Widespread potential for growth-factor-driven resistance to anticancer kinase inhibitors

TL;DR: It is found that most cells can be rescued from drug sensitivity by simply exposing them to one or more RTK ligands, and the observation that hepatocyte growth factor confers resistance to the BRAF inhibitor PLX4032 in BRAF-mutant melanoma cells is among the findings with clinical implications.
