Massively parallel sequencing of lung adenocarcinoma (Abstract)
Key Points
183 tumors from patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma were studied with complete characterization of genomic alterations using next-generation sequencing and SNP array analysis
25 significantly mutated genes were identified, leading the way toward a comprehensive characterization of alterations in lung adenocarcinoma
Dr Love’s Take
This comprehensive genomic characterization of pulmonary adenocarcinoma is one of many recently reported data sets defining the mutations and alterations that present potential targets for novel agents and strategies.
