A group of researchers led by a Canadian scientist have identified a rare gene mutation that could be associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. In a peer-reviewed study published in the American Journal of Human Genetics, the researchers identified a mutation in a gene called ATRIP.
Twelve genetic mutations in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma may predict which patients will experience recurrence; they could also help personalize adjuvant treatment, researchers say.
Genetic mutations in the tumours of kidney cancer patients can predict their risk of relapse, according to a new study published this week in the Journal of the American Association for Cancer Research. An international consortium led by a team from McGill University, in collaboration with the University of Leeds in the UK, has reportedly achieved a major breakthrough in kidney cancer treatment research
Doctors may be able to predict the outlook for patients suffering from certain forms of kidney cancer based on looking at DNA mutations, according to new research published Thursday.
A decade-long international study into kidney cancer has shown that doctors can predict the likelihood of a patient's disease returning by looking at DNA mutations in their tumors.
