Core Tip |
The proportion of patients with gene fusions in Chinese patients with gastric cancer (GC) has not yet been characterized. In our analysis, we found that 1.68% of such patients harbor fusions involving targetable genes. Moreover, these fusion genes were enriched in patients with ERBB2 amplification. Our study indicates that gene fusion detection may provide a novel approach for GC therapy. |
