Journal ArticleDOI

The landscape of genomic alterations across childhood cancers

Susanne Gröbner, +185 more
- 15 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: The data suggest that 7–8% of the children in this cohort carry an unambiguous predisposing germline variant and that nearly 50% of paediatric neoplasms harbour a potentially druggable event, which is highly relevant for the design of future clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

The whole-genome landscape of medulloblastoma subtypes

Paul A. Northcott, +95 more
- 19 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: The application of integrative genomics to an extensive cohort of clinical samples derived from a single childhood cancer entity revealed a series of cancer genes and biologically relevant subtype diversity that represent attractive therapeutic targets for the treatment of patients with medulloblastoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Atypical Teratoid/Rhabdoid Tumors Are Comprised of Three Epigenetic Subgroups with Distinct Enhancer Landscapes

TL;DR: Three distinct molecular subgroups of ATRTs, associated with differences in demographics, tumor location, and type of SMARCB1 alterations, were identified, leading to the identification of subgroup-specific regulatory networks and potential therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive assessment of somatic mutation detection in cancer using whole-genome sequencing

Tyler Alioto, +93 more
TL;DR: It is shown that using PCR-free methods and increasing sequencing depth to ∼100 × shows benefits, as long as the tumour:control coverage ratio remains balanced, and many issues are in fact easy to remedy and have an immediate positive impact on mutation detection accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic targeting of ependymoma as informed by oncogenic enhancer profiling

Stephen C. Mack, +108 more
- 04 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: Through profiling of transcriptional enhancers, this study provides a framework for target and drug discovery in other cancers that lack known genetic drivers and are therefore difficult to treat, and reveals putative oncogenes, molecular targets and pathways.
