Abstract

Abstract While the genomics of high-grade serous carcinoma are well-studied in large international consortia, the less common subtypes have been neglected. We have sought to rectify this gap by analyzing international collections of low-grade serous and mucinous ovarian carcinomas and their putative benign and borderline precursors. Exome sequencing and copy number analysis of low-grade serous carcinomas (n=9) and serous borderline tumours (n=13) and targeted sequencing and copy number analysis in additional carcinomas (n=10) and borderline tumours (n=44) identified recurrent mutations in novel drivers such as EIF1AX and USP9X, as well as the known drivers KRAS,..
