Identification of somatic genetic alterations in ovarian clear cell carcinoma with next generation sequencing
Genes, chromosomes & cancer ·doi:10.1002/gcc.22507

Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is the most refractory subtype of ovarian cancer and more prevalent in Japanese than Caucasians (25% and 5% of all ovarian cancer, respectively). The aim of this study is to discover the genomic alteratio…
