Molecular Guided Therapy Provides Sustained Clinical Response in Refractory Choroid Plexus Carcinoma.

abstract：:Tumors frequently arise as a result of an acquired genomic instability and the subsequent evolution of neoplastic populations with variable genomes. A barrier to the study of the somatic genetics of human solid tumors in vivo is the presence of admixtures of non-neoplastic cells with normal genomes in patient samples....
