When, why and how clonal diversity predicts future tumour growth

Abstract: Intratumour heterogeneity holds promise as a prognostic biomarker in multiple cancer types. However, the relationship between this marker and its clinical impact is mediated by an evolutionary process that is not well understood. Here we employ a spatial computational model of tumour evolution to assess when, why and how intratumour heterogeneity can be used to forecast tumour growth rate, an important predictor of clinical progression. We identify three conditions that can lead to a positive correlation betwe… Show more
