Variable latency between the founder genetic event and rhabdoid tumor expansion
Rhabdoid tumors are very aggressive rare pediatric cancers with poor survival affecting very young children. They are characterized by the bi-allelic loss of SMARCB1 or SMARCA4, which is suspected to ...

Five latent factors underlie response to immunotherapy - Nature Genetics
Analysis of human tumor datasets shows that all features that appear significantly associated with immunotherapy response and survival may be collapsed into five latent factors: tumor mutation burden, T cell effective infiltration, TGF-β activity in the microenvironment, prior treatment and tumor proliferative potential.
