Perspective on Oncogenic Processes at the End of the Beginning of Cancer Genomics

Abstract: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has catalyzed systematic characterization of diverse genomic alterations underlying human cancers. At this historic junction marking the completion of genomic characterization of over 11,000 tumors from 33 cancer types, we present our current understanding of the molecular processes governing oncogenesis. We illustrate our insights into cancer through synthesis of the findings of the TCGA PanCancer Atlas project on three facets of oncogenesis: (1) somatic driver mutations, germli… Show more

“…The Pan-Cancer Atlas provides a panoramic view of the oncogenic processes that contribute to human cancer. It reveals how genetic variants collaborate in cancer progression and explores the influence of mutations on cell signaling and immune cell composition, providing insight to prioritize the development of new immunotherapies 144 .…”

“…We also found clonal indels in NF2 in two tumors (cdRCC and mixRCC), and MET (mixRCC), SMARCB1 (pRCC1) and ROS1 (pRCC2) indels in one tumor each. We found no mutations in TP53, mutated in a high proportion of cases across cancer types 15 , and no mutations in the 5'UTR region of TERT, which has been reported as mutated in a sizeable fraction of ccRCC 10 (Fig.1c and Fig. S2 and Table S5 and Table S6).…”

“…Other studies map the mutation landscape during oncogenesis with respect to the context-depending impact of a mutation on different gene regulatory levels, e.g. epigenome and transcriptome [56], or provided a unique clustering of tumor types and subtypes using multi-omic datasets [57]. …”
