Extrachromosomal DNA in the cancerous transformation of Barrett’s oesophagus

TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from patients with oesophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) or Barrett's o esophagus and found that the frequency of ecDNA increased between Barrett's-oesophagus-associated early-stage and late-stage (43%) EAC.
Posted ContentDOI

Topography of mutational signatures in human cancer

TL;DR: Comprehensive topography analysis of mutational signatures encompassing 82,890,857 somatic mutations in 5,120 whole-genome sequenced tumours integrated with 516 tissue-matched topographical features from the ENCODE project allows researchers to explore the interactions between somatic mutational processes and genome architecture within and across cancer types.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiomic analysis of malignant pleural mesothelioma identifies molecular axes and specialized tumor profiles driving intertumor heterogeneity

TL;DR: In this paper , a morphomolecular classification of mesothelioma based on ploidy, tumor cell morphology, adaptive immune response and CpG island methylator profile is presented.
Posted ContentDOI

SigProfilerMatrixGenerator: a tool for visualizing and exploring patterns of small mutational events

TL;DR: SigProfilerMatrixGenerator is a computational tool designed for optimized exploration and visualization of mutational patterns for all types of small mutational events and is the first to provide support for classifying doublet base substitutions and small insertions and deletions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Somatic 9p24.1 alterations in HPV– head and neck squamous cancer dictate immune microenvironment and anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor activity

TL;DR: The 9p24.1 expression threshold of 60th percentile, ICT median survival was 3-fold higher than chemotherapy; below this threshold, chemotherapy survival rates exceeded ICT as mentioned in this paper .
