Molecular Landscape of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

Publication date: 13 November 2017
Source:Cancer Cell, Volume 32, Issue 5
Author(s): Joshua J. Meeks, Seth P. Lerner
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Hurst et al. report an integrated analysis of non-invasive (stage Ta) bladder cancer. Two genomic subtypes are distinguished by chromosome 9q loss, resulting in increased AKT/PI3K/mTOR signaling. Tumors from female patients have a higher frequency of KDM6A mutations.

In this issue of Cancer Cell, Hurst et al. report an integrated analysis of non-invasive (stage Ta) bladder cancer. Two genomic subtypes are distinguished by chromosome 9q loss, resulting in increased AKT/PI3K/mTOR signaling and increased risk of recurrence. Tumors from female patients have a higher frequency of KDM6A mutations.
